When car tires start to show signs of wear it usually means it's time for a replacement, but the 'Green Hive' tire aims to change this and eliminate the need to constantly swap out entire pieces of gear.
The 'Green Hive' consists of a design with interchangeable portions that can be replaced as required to ensure that the tires are always in optimal shape.
The 'Green Hive' tires have an interchangeable sidewall and inner block that work to ensure that the tires can be repaired rather than replaced to eliminate the associated waste.
The 'Green Hive' car tires are intended to be used with different blocks to be used with snow and ice or on more rugged terrain. The 'Green Hive' is the design work of Choi Seung-Il, Kim Tae-Nyun and Kim Hyo-Joong.
