Do not adjust your web browsers, this wheel really has no spokes. First developed as a motorcycle wheel, the Radurra is made of two-inch thick polycarbonate and reportedly stands up to quite a bit of abuse, as evidenced by a video featuring a Nissan 350 doing an extended series of donuts and general tomfoolery.

That said, we’d be more than a little concerned about cooling issues, even if officials consider these to be “cruising” wheels, not to mention potholes and temperature changes. There’s also the small matter of brake dust. Either way, company reps say that Radurra wheels can be tinted any color, and can even be lit internally. If they can hold up under everyday use, they’re certainly an interesting development.

Canopies of fighter aircraft like F-16 are made of 2 inch polycarbonate. Its a strong material but is susceptible to degradation when exposed to high temperatures, sunlight and sharp impacs. Anyhow this is an interesting development.

@mics420
In the video the guy says its the same material used on space shuttles. I think it can withstand high temperatures because shuttles usually do when coming back into Earth's atmosphere...
