I am smarter than the average bear, but I have never heard of any "special property of gases". You need to clarify your question.

All properties of gases are defined in the Combined Gas Law:

PV=NRT where:

P = pressure

V = volume

N = quantity of gas

R = a constant depending on what units you want to use

T = absolute temperature

What effect temperature have on tire behaviour?

i can effect the pressure and make gripping difficult


What is the ply in the radial ply tire?

Tires are built from a series of products some containing special properties and some cording. The Radial Ply tire consists of a Butyl base layer which gives the non porus properties to maintain air pressure (tubeless). Then there are one or two layers of a corded product with the cords running across the face of the tire from left to right. Then a series of products for side wall the bead area and White rubber if the tire is a White Walled tire. The tire is then inflated and shaped to what we all recognize as a tire shape, where bands of metallic products cross in an X pattern to give the tire it's "radial" support and strength. The Plys are the combination of all of the polyester and metallic belts or bands that give the tire this support.


What would happen to party balloons that are inflated at room temperature and taken outside on a winters day?

When the temperature drops gases contract, so the balloon would be less inflated. This is the same reason why tire pressure drops when it gets cold outside.


Why does and inner tube with 3 psi float with a 150 pound person but a rim and tire with 32 psi sink with the weight of a hand?

The answer lies within the physical property known as Buoyancy. This is the same as asking "Why does a steel ship float?"


Why does air come out of a bicycle tire when you open the valve even if the valve is pointing up?

Because the air inside the tire is under pressure. Gas always flows from a region of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure. As the pressure inside the tire is greater than the pressure outside, the air always comes out of the bicycle tyre.
