Puncture proof tyres

[another_dave_b]

I'm now want to return to cycling, but do not want to become the devil's laughing boy again! For a long time, i've joked about getting solid bike tyres. But recently, i've genuinly been looking at "so called" puncture proof tyres. I saw an ad on Ebay that contains a video of these.

I've been looking at verious manufacturers of these such as Amerityre or Greentyre . A work friend of mine recommended Cycle-Chat as a good place to get other cyclist's oppinions. Any of you good people got any experience/opinions/etc with these puncture proof tyres?

After getting three punctures in four days last autumn I put a Schwable Silento II on the rear wheel, it's not been holed yet.

I personally never want to be canal side (where i usually cycle) in the rain changing a tyre. I am prepared to make some sacrifices when it comes to performance and money isn't that much of an issue in order to achieve this.

What do you guys make of these?
