I think belted tires are a necessity now days with the higher speeds cars/trucks can reach with brushless motors. Plus i think it would help out with wheel bearing and suspension life. Ever watch a suspension arm flex back and forth when a tire expands and gets further and further out of ballance?

If nobody whined, nothing in the world would get improved or change.

Well most of us are whining then. because belted tires would be the single most significant next step for RC since BL/Lithium.

Thats worth quoting for sure.

Belted tires will most likely change the R/C world...

Looks promising, unfortunately for us bashers that's not quite 'it'.
I think something like Michelin's "Tweel" scaled down might be a much better solution:
