The 2016 Geneva International Motor Show brings new cars and new innovations in the auto world.
Goodyear unveiled "Eagle-360" tires that could change the way cars move last week at the show.
The sphere-shaped, 3-D printed concept tires boast a number of features, including sensors that read road conditions and are equipped with grooves with adapting sponges that avoid hydroplaning, according to a March 1 press release.
Goodyear said the tires would also change position automatically to extend use.
Since the tires move in different directions, it would also increase parking lot space with no construction needed.
Popular Science reported that the tires would be made for self-driving cars and would be individually customized.
But don't expect the tires to be on the market anytime soon.
Goodyear describes the tires as a "purely conceptual development" that is the company's "vision for autonomous vehicles for the future and a reflection of our innovative thought process."
So, for now, Goodyear is just showing off possibilities.
