Just checked mine

I had one from:

Event Mobile Tyres - Your Local Mobile Tyre Fitting Service

Blackcircles look like they have also been supplying these 'illegal' tyres.

The ones I've had from mytyres are fine.

Will be contacting them tomorrow

These non-e marked tyres are illegal to sell or use within the UK afaik!

Thanks for the heads-up

Off to check mine in a mo, although I must say I've never felt them to be a terrible tyre since fitting, so I'm guessing I've got the good ones.

MADE IN CHINA, so I'm ok.

Thanks for the heads-up!

My last purchases were from event mobile tyres in July 2006 and they are indeed from Thailand Pooh!

Not actually on the car ATM as I've got 17"s since a month ago!

Cheers

Just got 2 x new F1's from mytyres, they are not fitted yet.

They are made in Thailand but also have the E13 mark on them. So are these going to be the rubish ones or good ones?
