Tweel, amalgame de tire (pneu) et de wheel (roue), est un prototype de pneu conçu par Michelin.
La base du support interne n’est pas l’air mais des rayons de polyuréthane flexible qui supportent la bande de roulement : le Tweel ne peut donc pas exploser ou crever.
Il reste cependant des problèmes à résoudre (vibrations et bruits à haute vitesse) mais les premières applications pour les militaires vont débuter. Un autre avantage serait une meilleure tenue latérale en particulier pour les profils bas.
