New Tyres

Post by dalgrae »

Well at long last having done most of my jobs on my Series 2 during the shortish time I have had the car and prior to it being re MOTd at the end of March I have had a new set of Bridgstone B931 tyres fitted at my local tyre shop and not a moment too soon as they replaced vey old looking Kelly Milemaster items ,not only were the side walls cracked but the cracks also appeared in the tread pattern , does anyone know when Kelly tyres were last made please

Kelly Tires is still in business as far as I'm aware.

The manufacturing date code is on the sidewall of all tyres. Usually written in the form "0611" which means week 06 of year 2011. Older tyres used a slightly different code system but its all available on Google....
