I still don't get why this game has rubber tires. It doesn't make sense. The vacuum would destroy them and make them go boom.

~~What do Lunar vehicles use for their tires?~~

Oh, interesting. I just looked up the Apollo Lunar Roving Vehicle, and its tires were like a wire mesh with metal chevrons for traction.

how does that not make sense? tires on earth are also at higher pressures than atmospheric

the atmospheric pressure keeps the tires from expanding too much though
with no air in space, the pressure would be enough to rip the tire apart

Kearn · July 25, 2014, 06:59:38 PM

if you lower the pressure in the tire by 14.7 psi its the same differential pressure

its the same reason spacesuits dont explode

"Not stuff" I would assume.

That would explain the extreme rigidness and lack of compression and smashing my floor to bits at only 1G.

You're assuming they're at a standard earth pressure. In space it'd be a very low pressure inside the tire.
