This seems like somewhat of an oversight but that's perhaps due to my abysmal automotive knowledge.
I'm wondering why there aren't solid tires available for cars in Shadowrun. It seems like it would be a cheap way to have tires that cant really get shot up. This would probably effect the speed and handling of the car, but it seems odd to not have them. |
