Yes I have heard different things about this, size of tyre, agricultural use etc affects it, and as you said, remoulds. Have'nt BFG muds just changed regarding this. So what are the EU going to do about my next door neighbours son's saxo which makes far more noise than an off road tyre.

Hi Jon, done a bit of research and the following categories are excluded from the scope

 

retread tyres

professional off road tyres

racing tyres

studded tyres

temporary use spare tyres

tyres designed to be fitted on vehicles registered for the first time before 1 October 1990

tyres whose speed rating is less than 80km/h 50mph

tyres whose nominal rim diameter dose not exceed 254mm or 635mm

 

Stick some go-faster stripes and a number on your land rover, that might be one way round it.
