The plastics “tires” were what made the green machine so fun. You get up some stopped in a staring line then slam the levers forward and backward and spin out for a 180° then zoom back down the driveway on increasingly lumpy wheels from all the flat spots.
Same with the big wheels with hand brakes, which weren’t as cool.
That’s also got a rubber tube front wheel instead of plastic.

The rears are still plastic. The front tire on this new one is rubber , which gives you better traction so that you can get up to speed better.
