I'm guessing the see through bit is just for testing. When manufactured for resale my guess is they will make them look just like regular tyres.

in the article is it just me or are these two statements totally contradicting?

"are scheduled to be out on the market very soon"

"It will be a while before they are available to the automotive industry."

Googling 'Tweel' gives you much more info

Looks like it hasn't made domestic/commercial production as it experiences vibration and heat generating issues at speed...
