Pretty sure this is an April fool’s joke..

The whole government already adapting it gives it away, apart from the name “Q tire”..

injunraiv The Q Tires web site looked pretty genuine to me, but, of course, it could all be part of a much wider conspiracy

They now need to turn their attention to developing breast implants with retractable nipples.

Well, having to stop and inflate the tires every once in a while sure is a hell of a lot better and easier to do than putting on a different set every winter.

Shaver, you can activate them a bunch of times but you need to periodically reinflate.

Good idea but ultimately Id like a tire that will be studded in morning, then not studded in afternoon when its thawed out. So I would be way more interested if the studs could be activated countless times. I dont mind having two sets of tires, but 2/3 of time in winter I have the studs on I dont need them.

CaCaLover has one of these pressure inflation pumps installed in his underwear when he heads out and night to the “designer bars” in West Hollywood.

Oh would that be sweet. It sure would save those of us that use snow and summer performance tires money and a lot of time. Although I’m sure these are going to be pretty pricey when they first come out.
