set out to make their own airless wheels using materials readily available from a hardware store.
To create the signature hollow framework structure of an airless tire, 15 pieces of plastic PVC drain pipe were cut down to size and arranged around a 14-inch steel rim, while smaller pieces of pipe were used to fill in the gaps between the pipes and the outer rubber tread trimmed off a regular tire.
se while out on the track, the DIY wheels did surprisingly well. They handled pot holes with ease andsuccessfullfor short intervals without completely disintegrating. They didn’t provide the smoothest ride, however, and while nails didn’t result in any permanent damage, another hour out on the roads very well might have.
