I think we are fortunate not to have EC-wide rules. That would probably
mean that the strictest rules of each country would be used everywhere. The
tyre restrictions is one of these terrible examples of motoring nannyism.
In Sweden, the rule is that you can any non-competition tyre you want as
long as stay within 10% of the original tyre dimension - which you would do
anyway in order not to destroy the handling.
