Green tyres?

On Tuesday as I joined the A1 from the A428 an artic passed by which had bright green tyres on the trailer, not painted green but the rubber was actually green, anyone know what’s so special about these tyres? Are they some sort of Eco tyre?

our garage has just had a rear set delivered to put on a axor that has had various green (save the planet) changes to it,i think they have got some type of gas in them which gives less rolling resistance.

is there a nuclear plant nearby ? :slight_smile:

A factory in middlesborough makes solid coloured bike tyres, they are not solid hard rubber but feel like normal blow up tyres.If they are trying them out on trucks that would be fantastic

These coloured tyres are nothing new. Eurovos and Foodtrans painted all their trailer wheels different colours. Normally Red, Green and Blue on each axle
