Amerityre's Non-Pneumatic Tyre Offering
Amerityre Corp claims it is in the final stages of developing a non-pneumatic tyre that hugs the road like a rubber tyre, rides just as smoothly and is more ecologically sound than traditional rubber tyres.
The company has been developing just such a tyre since 1995 and is now nearing completion of a refined prototype that already has passed minimum government-mandated safety standards and a second round of testing is about to commence.
"In my 40-plus years experience in the automotive industry,
Amerityre's car tyre technology has the most potential to change the industry as we know it," said Lee Iacocca, former president of Ford Motor Co. and President and Chairman of Chrysler Corp. Iacocca is the chairman of Amerityre's advisory board.
