Road tests show solid tires smash roads more than pneumatics
United States bureau conducted experiments comparing solid tires and pneumatic tires using a 4.5 ton truck on uneven road. At 5 mph the old solid tire produced 11,600 lbs per impact, the new solid tire 9,400 lbs and the pneumatic tire 7,100 lbs. At 14 mph the blows rose 150 percent for the old solid tire, 100 percent for the new solid tire, and only 17 percent for the pneumatic tire, indicating solid tires cause far greater road impact.
