So looks like im in the market for new ones to keep the right side of the law. Call me vein but I love the white writing on the side wall and Im sure I want mud terrains so I've narrowed it down to the following:

Enduro Runway:



Roadstone:



Maxxis Buckshot:



GT Radial:

I'd love some BF Goodrich but it's too much of a premium. So any veiws or other options?

Also what size tyres is optimum? I have 205/75/15 on at the minute.

Thanks in advance!

Just to add I'm well aware that I could buy a white 'tyre pen' but that's really not my style !

is it in big righting if not sand it off then who would no and but a tube in it if you can get one

Hmm, that's an idea and the writings not massive!

I wouldn't mind doing it right though...

Hi mate I have some really nice BFG A/T's on mine with white writing all the round with around 14mm tread.

No white tyre wall writing I'm afraid.

Maxxis Buckshots mate, really good tyre and quiet on the road.

You need item number 190512004653 - 235/75 R15 but you need a lift and some body trimming for these though

Also, they are not road legal for a reason. Get some that you know will be ok and stick the old ones on eBay.

It's not just your safety at stake but also the rest of us on the roads and pavements!

Kirkynut

there is no where in the mot manual or a failure or advisary to say a tyr has to be E marked on a class 4 mot the only thing i think i saw was some thing saying not for highway use but will double check

Ive just typed a massive reply and lost it

Only one the inside of the tyre (or one side depending on how you look at it) does it say ''competition use'' in 2cm tall writing - it doesnt say ''competition use only''?

They are by no means dangerous which is why it bums me out to perhaps have to buy some more.

Adamski - Think i want new ones but they are a bargain glwts.

Gromit - Im pretty sure if i buy ill get those - mines already lifted and trimmed, thanks!

Thanks boys

I know what your saying Kirkynut

My better half had a part worn put on her 207 last week, 2 days later it went flat. Went my pals to have a look and when we took tyre off we found a 1'' slit in the inside tyre wall which had been repaired with A BICYCLE PATCH - now she has a kid/kid seat in the car - disgusting.

Safety's upmost - you dont have to tell me matey - which is why ill buy the buckshots.

Is there a link to the 110 thread, what went wrong?
