why shouldn't they be used on the freeway?

Only thing I can think of for this is that it may be a distraction to drivers. Maybe it's illegal, then again I'm not completely sure on this.

My bet is that at higher speeds, it will throw off the balance of the wheel. Or should I say, the higher the speed, the more vibration will occur because of the weight.

I didn't make the comment about the SODIAL LED Flash Tire light not to be used on freeways. I used and am using them on my bicycles and they work GREAT!!! These are very good lights. They should work on your car or motorcycle as well, but I have not tested that. They work great on bicycles. Excellent light!

I would say no. they are not for that purpose. They are for load. I put mine in a class A motorhome and they work great for that application.

I don't think I would try that. They seem like they might be a little light for a vehicle of that size.

I use mine a diff way. I have it on all the time. good for freeway traffic. and general watching what is behind you. I have 2 on my plane also, looking to the rear, I have a smoke system and I can see that is putting out smoke. and general watching the tail for anything , oil or tail flutter .

The short answer is yes. Just make sure they are clean! If not you may lose them on the freeway! No armor all or wax.

It is specifically designed for bicycle use and will take you along bike friendly routes, so car use (especially on freeways) would prove to be annoying.

I have not had any problems at freeway speeds 70MPH+. Unless you drive maybe 90MPH+ you should not have any problems.I was initially wondered if they would put the wheels out of balance because they are a little large but at 70MPH I did not notice any additional vibration. If you plan on some very high speeds you should get a wheel balance with the sensors installed.

I doubt it. They are design for stock suspension travel. The spring may not extend very well.

you can use them, that's where I have mine. The car will probably be ok but I think it will move them out of place.

You CAN, but you shouldn't. Just like you can drive 100 MPH on the freeway, but shouldn't.

I don't think they would do very well on hot pavement..they aren't very thick, more like ballons like the other person said. Plus, on the pavement they won't hold up very well anyways.

If your rack is placed on your automobile securely there should be no problem driving at freeway speeds. Check at Yakima website for correct rack for your auto. Also check YouTube for proper installation. Thanks,Leo.

I would have to say no. On the highway it blows around because it doesn't fold up enough to sit securely. Anything over 25mph is an issue.

It would probably be overkill. These are intended for heavy frames or areas that are earthquake prone.

I don't think there is much of a place to put them on. You might be able to but have to drill a hole. It can reach pretty high speeds with little passengers too.

As far as I know these tires are just for 2 wheel drive because of there thread design not much for grip for off road use.. although these tires are very quite on the freeway unlike those off road tires make a lot of noise..

Yes truckers still use them and they are the way most truckers on the road talk to one another to ask road conditions, where is the "smokies" and so forth. They are used by various people in trucking, home hobby, construction, etc.
