Our Peugeot Rally car runs "F2" tyres for some of our events.
Question is are they road legal ?
OK they don't exactly look 100% legal now do they !
They are E approved. Do have wear indicators within the tread patterns.
They DO NOT say "not for road use" or anything motorsport.
They are supposedly road legal for link stages.... whatever that means. Surely road legal is road legal.
Manufactor quotes this
"Tarmac rally stage 'moulded slick' designed to meet FIA international regulations that require a minimum 17 percent tread pattern. Road legal for link sections"
I certainly wouldn't like to be caught out in a rain shower in them, on an event if you get it wrong and it ends up wet you might as well park up and get the flask of coffee out
Anyone know their ins and outs of the tyre law ?
