It doesn't seem too difficult to go from tire shop to regular car maintenance shop. Michelin would care less about manufacturing tires and more about R&D, e.g. Can you scale the Uptis design up to tractors and larger sized wheels? The incentive here for Michelin is also being an initial leader in the new market if an airless tire fad catches on and the product is good.

I just got new tires for my truck at a place named Tire something or other. Since I was there I got an oil change. I also have a leaky head gasket (110k miles on the truck) they said they could fix it then or I could just do it at my next oil change.
