Green way machos are road legal, they carry all the apropiate markings and are speed rated.
Alligators are not as I removed these to fit Machos so I could pass the MOT
Check www.sowdentyres.co.uk
Or the Colway siteI checked before I bought them
Remember it will come in handy even if you never use it

whoops, do I have it wrong then...

Humble apologies if I have..... I should have said 'maybe not road legal' only to point out that it needs to be checked.....

Robbie you are not wrong just right to be cautious, in this day and age of litigation you need to make sure you have the correct answer or bull if you are stopped by plod or grilled by your insurance if you have a accident

it is also worth noting that the insurance (if it is to be insured for on road use) shoud be told of the non-standard modifications. If an accident was to occur, they could invalidate the insurance due to non standard tyres....

Robbie i sent mine a list, I should really write and ask for a letter of acceptance as I had to remove the bull bar to get the policy but it was only £116 fully comp.

yeeh they are all different..... some wont allow you to change a bulb without checking it is the right sort, slight exageration, but you know what  mean....

Some seem fine, but I wonder how they will ACTUALLY be if an accidet occured in the vehicle....

Just check EVRYTHING is covered and you document it, crossing every 'T' and dotting every 'I'.....
