As an MOT tester I notice that almost ninety percent of new tyres are made outside the UK, with the majority from China. Very few drivers understand the difference between the quality of branded tyres and budget tyres. I agree with Ken that the average motorist is governed by their pocket, and I highly doubt the increase in cost would be £15 when tyres are produced with information already printed on them anyway.
