Airplane tires are amazing. When compared to a regular car’s tire, the airplane tires can withstand much more. It seems that car tires get holes in them so easily. They have to be replace after such a short time of use. However, airplane tires are usually landing after going 150 miles per hour and bringing down an enormous weighty object. However, the airplane tires do not pop.

Airplane tires are made up of a special nylon and have cords in the tread. Regular air responds and reacts with other gases. However, nitrogen does not. Nitrogen gas fills most airplane tires the nitrogen remains stable more often. This allows the plane to be able to land on the runway without causing problems with the tires.
