[QUOTE="aspro, post: 460563, member: 16000"] Interesting info. I've looked into the legalities surrounding tyres and load ratings in the past and found the following. http://www.btmauk.com/data/files/Replacing_Car_Tyres_1_June_2011.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Quotes direct from this document. [i]UK law does stipulate replacement tyres must have a Load Index equal to or higher than the original fit tyre.[/i] [i]When replacing tyres it is very important that not only the tyre size is equivalent to the original fit tyres, but that the “Load Index” and “Speed Symbol” are equal to or higher than the original fit tyres. [/i] We're all screwed if the shit hits the fan. :shock: [/QUOTE]
