Re: Rules for Pneumatic Tires?
Does this Q&A effectively ban pneumatic tires? http://forums.usfirst.org/showthread.php?t=13703

Thus, an additional inflatable item that is actually inflated would be prohibited. However, an inflatable item that not connected to a pneumatic system and is used in its deflated state would be permitted (assuming it didn't violate any other rules).
