Maybe not. The MOT requirement was for 1.6mm of tread across the centre 3/4 of the tread width. By law it's 1.6mm across the whole tread. SO in theory you could pass the MOT but due to alignment be low on the insides and get 3 points a piece.

That was my understanding though and I am prepared to be corrected
