Looks awsome but I want to see a real picture of the actual tire before
I buy.

Looks very cool! Yes, if they expect customers to buy off their web
site, they need some photos on there.

I shall buy one, maybe once I see a real tire, but I think the snakeskin
looks the best.

I sent them e-mail - I think it's a good idea to do so, since their
website could use some improvement (would be nice if it wasn't all
Flash animations too).

Whilst I'm talking about their website - don't forget to click the
"moon" button to see the reflective pattern that'd be visible at nice.
All the tyres have a nighttime pattern too, by the look of it. Nice!

I've found reviews of some of their tyres - but most of them seem to be
old designs that are not the ones featured on the websites.

Personally I think the flame / hazard warning designs are the coolest
:-)

I think they look strange because they were photographed in the dark:
it looks like the flash has gone off because all the reflective parts
are shining. Presumably (hopefully) they'd look a bit less weird in
real life! The normal-light pictures I found by Googling certainly
looked less weird, although they were different patterns to the ones on
the Sweetskinz website.

Yeah it looks like the light is just reflecting and making it look like
that. or, maybe that's why they don't have real pics on their site?

sent them an email in march. Excerpts of the response:
-------------------------
Unfortunately, we do not have any distributors set up internationally
quite yet, so the cost of shipping would be very expensive. We're
hoping by September that we should have a handful set up.

I will definitely hold on to your information, and will be in contact
with you immediately if I find out any further information.

Also, I know our website can be confusing, it's just temporary as we
are
in the process of coming out with a brand new site.

Yeah, the pictures under "Buy Now" are pretty good, and makes it clear
that they have a decent range of sizes (20", 26", 700c) and treads. It
looked like a lot of the tyres were on preorder when I checked
yesterday though, so I'm assuming that they're still in manufacturing.

The photo in this thread is showing the reflective qualities in the
dark.
In daylight they look more like the ones on the site.
