They'll just come OEM on cars.

Never having a flat tire or dented rim from a pothole sounds good to me. Also, I think you could just change the tire tread cap when it wears out and not the entire assembly.

How can you preform tire analysis over the internet when you can barely type a complete sentence without mistakes?
