Q-Tires Would Do James Bond Proud
When Bond needed his Aston Martin Vanquish to stop dead on ice in Die Another Day, he simply flipped a “traction” switch and spikes came out of his tires to give him the help he needed. With this in mind, South Carolina-based Q-Tires has developed a new model called “Celsius” that actually features retractable studs.
Snow tires beware: with the all-purpose Celsius, all the driver needs to do when the weather gets icy is flip a switch in their car, which fills a secondary chamber within the tire, activating the studs. Flipping the switch again releases the pressure retracts the studs. After the jump, watch the infamous Bond car chase and a movie from Q-Tires that explains the science.
