Probably not. We need to find the most HD smooth rubber anythings that we can.

too heavy


walmart kick balls are the only way to go at less than a 1$ each from distributor


or from the pirate, after reading 20 lame threads about bs search fucker

This stuff is old as shit.

Where I come from, smugglers filled their armored 4x4 tires with 15/20 bicycle tubes. When the cops shot at the tires the bullet would kill just a few, the other tubes would keep the tire from collapsing.

if someone gets a design I'm sure Ryan can find a cheap manufacturer.


And it shouldn't be too hard to get someone to draw a boob shaped bag in cad.


Just out of curiosity, doesn't anyone use a mid-density foam for this? seems that it would be better than pneumatics. I'm not an expert by any stretch, but it would seem that a little goop to adhere foam to rim or tire would prevent most of the tire ball throwing issues. And I'd think the foam would last a bit longer as it wouldn't really care about punctures. Moisture could be an issue though...

heat / abraision / wear  with foam. 

ATV guys tried Pool noodles, dust in miles on flat. 

weight of a foam that can support 25psi is also way to heavy
