wow..did you notice that hollow rim, inner tube tire design. I wonder how they get traction in the snow/ice, those things looked like they have 0 tread.

they do have zero tread....they just either chain them or wrap every foot and a half or so of the inner tube with rope to make ripples in it, I don't understand how it works but it seems too....
