Do tyres have to say for road use? or not for road use? how do I tell if they are road legal?
Thanks
Jack

most if not all have an (E) mark on it

the 'E' is in a circle

if it says ' not for road use ' its a £60 fine and 2 points i beleive

I was told 'M S T' on the sidewall denotes 'multi service tyre' and these are legal for road use.
