<p>A tire assembly for a vehicle has an integrally formed generally ring-shaped outer tire member (10) and an integrally formed generally ring-shaped inner tire member (20) that fits within the outer tire member. The outer tire member is made of relatively hard and relatively rigid material and the inner tire member is made of a material that is essentially incompressible but rather easily deformable. The inner tire member has protuberances and recesses formed in at least one of its circumferential surfaces to provide space for both radial compression and lateral expansion of its material to ensure resilient support of the outer tire member.</p> |
