Anyone who uses either Colway or Motorway remould tyres would be well advised to stock up now (if they can any stock) as their parent company (Environmental Waste Solutions) has gone into receivership and production of tyres at both companies has ceased.
This is particularly bad news for "club" rallying as many competitors have been using the economic Colway brand for years.
It was well known that the company had been struggling for some time. In particular it was having trouble in being competitive against cheap Eastern European and Asian imports. The UK appears to be a bit of a dumping ground, we're apparently less fussy about the tyres we use than most other countries.
I saw this in the paper over the weekend. I thought that the competition tyres were still being made. Not much help to us though! Mark
