Abstract: A luminescent non-pneumatic tire device for supporting a wheel rim on a rough road surface without needing to be filled with air includes a cylindrical inner wall, a tread concentrically positioned around the inner wall, and a pair of sidewalls coupling the inner wall to the tread. A cable is concentrically coupled around the inner wall, and a plurality of flat springs extend from the cable to the tread. Each flat spring is deformable and contributes to smoothing bumps in a road surface traversed by the device. The device also comprises a photoluminescent material which serves to increase the visibility of the device.
