Date wise, I know Shinko made the GT tyres from at least April '84, but I'm not sure when the manufacturer changed (sometime in 86 or 87, I'll try and find out).

Appears it was late '86 - production changed to Tiawan (from Shinko in Japan). If your tyres are made in Tiawan then they're late '86 onwards and are race tyres  :daumenhoch:
