PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle, configured to use characteristically different tread surfaces of a tire selectively depending on each situation by changing a camber angle of the tire by a camber angle change means, capable of ensuring the tire's grip even when the camber angle change means becomes unable to change the tire's camber angle. SOLUTION: The vehicle is configured, with an air chamber of the tire partitioned into a first chamber 61 on the side of a first tread 21 and a second chamber on the side of a second tread 22, such that the passages to communicate the first and second chambers with the outside can be opened and closed by their respective valves, thereby capable of opening one of the passages by operating the corresponding valve, for example, to decompress the second chamber even when the tire's camber angle becomes uncontrollable. This increases the ground contact of the first tread 21 (a tread having a high-grip characteristic) to ensure the tire's grip. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
