Default Green Diamond tires

Anyone have experience with them? Or heard of them?

http://www.greendiamondtire.com/
http://www.newind.is/english.htm

compartion test http://www.newind.is/engTests.htm

They add some granules into the tire material and that as they say increase adhese abilitys on ice, snow and wet tarmak.

I never found any test of them in magazines or on the net only saw the tests from the company that produce them and results are better than other tire manufactures.

Price is pretty good here, almost half of the price of normal expensive tires, dont know how it is in other countrys.

Looks interesting, i would have thought having small granules in you tires would cause excessive wear, but it seems the performed rather well.

Having said that it was the manufacturer doing the tests, so would like to see and independant tester.

But definately a tyre that has nothing to do with bling lol..
