I got 2 tyres thrown in with a deal I did and I have had a closer look and there Chinese xangyong tyres but theres no ... off road use only or no road use on the tyre walls so do Chinese tyres use a different thing on the wall to advise usage ???? Really just wana no if there for feild use only

They knobblys but they don't say anything normally all the ones I've had before say off road use only or something to indicate otherwise ...

Surely only legal for road use with an E mark. Otherwise off road only.....

usually a moto x tyre will have a NHS mark not for highway service .. a dot tyre can have M?S mark mud and snow
look for a speed marking i/e 120/80/18 65 R on somthing like a660 i wouldnt go lower than M rated which has alowed top speed of around 80mph

Well iam think these are only for off road use then as they don't have any markings other than the tyre size and the load index and p.rating which is 6 p.r ... there's no e marks after any numbers or speed ratings just the ply rating ...

Does it say MST anywhere on the sidewall?, if so it should be road legal as far as I know, was what my MOT bloke told me anyway.
