    I feel like this is not a bad design, however it is very unpractical. While the stance movement might be growing its more of a form over function thing in most cases. Most kids running aggressive camber will not want to dish out hundreds of dollars per tire for a small production tire. Nice concept but I just don't see something like that taking off on a large scale.

    Thanks for the link though, defiantly some food for thought

          better just to have a higher durometer compound on the inside of the tire, just make dual compound like the bicycle ondustire does with tires

            This will cause a ton more wear on the tires. If you took a sheet of paper and folded it into a cone and then tried to roll it, the cone would go in a circle. These tires are gonna do essentially the same thing, causing a ton of extra wear.

            I've thought about the idea before, but I just don't think its very practical at all

              Are people forgetting that camber is supposed to be there for handleing purposes? Why not just put solid axles on all cars if you want the tires to stay flat to the road.
