Lightbulb Tires of the future!

The tires of the future are here! Imagine never having to add air to your tires or never worrying about getting a flat tire(especially on motorcycles). And, having your tires last three times longer!

The company that is producing it is Amerityre. They are the developers of these revolutionary new tires. The types of tires that they have available right now are bicycle tires, wheel barrow tires, go-cart tires and similar other tires out there.

We just got these to sell at the shop that I work at and they are pretty neat. I'm pretty anxious to see them put to work. Just the bicycle tires are great, never having to worry about stupid tubes and flat tires is worth whatever the cost.

I've heard that the automobil tires that are in the final stages of testing have blown conventional tires away. I've heard that of the 12 DOT tests, they out-performed the typical rubber tires in 8 of the tests, and the other 4 they equally as good.

Sound interesting to you? Check out there site here: <a href="http://www.amerityre.com/" target="_blank">http://www.amerityre.com/</a>

I thought I would just clue you guys in. I can't wait till they come out with a motorcycle tire. That would be great.

I went ahead and ordered a sample to see how those things are manufactured... good concept... I wonder how it will stand at the speed and temperatures a regular tire is subject to...

Cool, I didn't know you could order samples. Probably the same thing that is sitting beside me which has a 2 inch segment of the three styles of bike tires. It really is a need concept.

I'm also curious how well they will hand speed and temperatures. Wonder if they will be able to make the different speed ratings.

I'm looking forward to some to get for my motorcycle.
