Drag the handle to compare. Measured pressure on the tread of a parked tire.

Where the weight goes

These are pressure maps of a tire's contact patch: the part of the tread touching the ground. Red is high pressure, blue is low.

Parked straight on the floor, the load presses hard into the tread blocks. In a FlexiGel cradle it spreads over a wider patch and the pressure stays mostly blue.

A parked car slowly flattens its own tires

Standing still, each tire carries a quarter of the car on one small patch, for weeks or months. The rubber sets in that shape. A FlexiGel cradle spreads the load, so the gel gives way instead of the tire.

gel takes the load

Tire stays round. The gel gives way instead, spreading the weight across the tread.

Illustration. Deformation is exaggerated so it is visible. How quickly a flat spot forms depends on tire type, vehicle weight, tire pressure and temperature.
