  2. I have just managed to source some new Kingpin remoulds, which seem to work OK, - www.kingpin-tyres.com  but of course you must check for 'legal' tread patterns on the ACTC list - www.actc.org.uk/how/Approved%20Tyre%20List%20Cars%20Mar08.pdf The difficult bit of getting these tyres is that they don't sell to the public!!! If you call them, they will tell you who their agents are, there may be someone local to you. I used MJ motorfactors who supplied them mail order, speak to Scott 01758 613078, it was a struggle to find out what was available, but when we finally settled on what I wanted, and what they could supply, the tyres were delivered next day! 6 off KMT 14x175/80 cost me just less than 짙160 delivered.  I did mention to him I would pass details on, so if you do contact them, please tell him that Richard from Northampton sent you!!!   Hope this helps   Richard N
