Title: Road Legal Tyres for a Peel
Post by: Smart51 on November 02, 2007, 07:38:02 PM
What tyres are road legal for a Peel Trident or P50?  I know they have go kart tyres but none of the ones I've found are e marked.

I'll come clean with you all.  I'm going to build a microcar and like Peel, I'm going to use 5" go kart rims.  In order to pass the MSVA test I need to have properly marked tyres.
