    Stretched tyres - Legality

    adamj29 posted a topic in Modifications

    Can any of you help. I was pulled over by the police last night. A nice bloke to be fair, but informed me that they are clamping down on stretched tyres. He thought my tyres "Weren't right" and even though he was warning me this time, next time they pulled over I will be given 45 mins to get a different set of wheels on the car before they tow and impound it. As well as giving me three points per wheel, so I could lose my license. The tyres I have don't have a lot of stretch. And seem perfectly safe, my old rotas seemed to be far more stretches than these. The wheels are 10.5" wide with 255 /35 tyres rear and 9.5" wide with 225 / 40 tyres. I literally cannot fit wider tyres on my car due to the wide arches being extremely close to the wheels as they are. Is there anyway I could get some paperwork that proves they are safe, as I'm aware there is some tolerance when it comes to stretch tyres.
