Russian Automotive Engineer Replaces the Back Tires of His Car With Giant Metal Coil Springs
by Lori Dorn from Laughing Squid on (#3VY79)
One of the star automotive engineers of Garage 54 decided that he would replace the rear tires of his much-experimented car with giant metal coil springs welded to the rims and then go for a ride around his hometown of Novosibirsk, Russia. He found the ride to be very smooth, albeit a bit distracting.
This actually ain't too bad. Just like on normal tires and even a bit more supple. Wow I'm loving this. The rear axle is really nice and soft. This is lovely "it's so nice and soft I like it. Only problem is it's a bit noisy.
