hi, just a quicky, im sick of buying tyres for my land rover and getting punctures so im wondering if it is possable to make your own ?

does any one remember as a kid collecting elastic bands and making huge balls out of them by stretching them around each other, well im thinking i could have the tyres removed from my rims and get loads of elastic bands and stretching them around the rim untill the size is about the same as a standard land rover tyre then covering it with black silicon untill i have a smooth look tyre. for the tread i was thinking i could just use the silicon to make 'tread beads' all round the 'tyre'.

when these wear down i only need a few tubes of black silicon to renew the tread to a pattern i like and being made of elastic bands they will never puncture !

if any one would like to try these new tyres i would be willing to make them for you but you will need to provide 70,000 elastic bands and 36 tubes of black silicon per wheel. i would be willing to take on a partner in this new business venture so if your interested let me know. im also thinking of going on dragons den for some serious finacial backing. :D
 
OH ! heres me thinking i was gonna get rich cos i had found the end of an elastic band black hole :(

you really know how to ruin someones day !!!


You could always use clear silicon rather than black, then you could park outside the local pub at closing time and watch the faces as they try and focus on a landy apparently floating 2 inches off the tarmac. :D
 
Would it be a good idea to make the tyres out of concrete and the roads from rubber, then the government would pay for us wearing the roads out rather than us paying for them wearing our tyres out.
