Goodyear said the AERO features a non-pneumatic structure. It claimed this enables it to absorb shocks on the road and “rotate at the high speeds necessary for the rotors to create vertical lift”. The spokes support the tire’s weight while functioning “as fan blades to provide lift when the tire is tilted”. Principal engineer Daniel Hinque explained that the spokes do not touch each other, as if they were to do so, the tire’s airborne capabilities and structural integrity could be undermined.

Like conventional tires, the Aero is round and rotates around a hub. But the tire is nonpneumatic — airless — and the included wheel it’s wrapped around is made no longer of inflexible metallic-like standard wheels but fanlike flexible spokes. “The individual blades absorb shocks while driving on the street however additionally act as robust rotors to create vertical carry while the tire is tilted,” Daniel Hinque, a Luxembourg-primarily based Goodyear engineer concerned inside the tire’s development, stated in a promotional video.
