Armored wheels

Armored wheels
Even the best tires are not completely puncture-proof. This is where the concept of tire reservation comes to the rescue, involving the use of reinforced discs and special types of tires. Let's take a look at the different aspects of this concept and how manufacturers are putting it into practice.

What are armored tires?
The idea of completely puncture-free tires may sound too fantastical, but the concept of tire reservation is becoming a reality. This is determined by the presence of a reinforced disk and a special type of rubber in the tires. A variety of rubber adaptation options include wheels with support rings of increased strength (bands), specially adapted tires for additional cargo and wheels with autonomous pumping systems for overcoming difficult terrain.

Booking technologies from leading brands
Today's leading brands, such as BFGoodrich, Yokohama, Michelin, Bridgestone, Pirelli, Firestone and others, use advanced technologies for the production of armored tires. For example, the PAX System technology includes special wheels and increased rigidity of the ring, which allows the car to continue moving with a loss of pressure in the tires at a speed of up to 80 km/h, even if one of the tires is punctured.

Design features
Let's call it the PAX system because of its uniqueness: no part of the wheel can be used separately. The tire has a special design of side rings that are not suitable for ordinary rims. The on-board ring has a special shape for reliable fixation on the disk in the deflated state.

Guaranteed safety on the road
Wheels with reservations have a number of features to ensure safety:

Special attachment to the disc that protects against disconnection in case of damage.

Monoblock structure that withstands increased weight and protects against deformation.

Support ring for pressure compensation in case of ruptures.

Built-in TPMS pressure and temperature sensors that warn the driver about a flat tire.
