New Tires?

I've heard people talking about new tires that won't have air. Here are some pics.

I can't imagine the ride quality or performance sacrificed by this type of design. I would imagine quick braking on the heavy front end of most cars would overload the tires and cause some serious damage to the axle and engine.
