You see the little strip to the right of centre?

It passed an MOT last week and when i asked how are my tyres he said "all fine".

Does that look fine?


EDIT wow didnt realise how big it was going to be, should have made it abit smaller but never mind at least you can see clearly

 

yes. I don't know about the rules in the UK but here in holland we have a min of 1.6mm. And mostly thats what the indicator is at.

 

Yes they are. I can see 3 in that pic. 1.6mm is the minimum legal limit I think.

 

Yep that sure is down to the min wear mark

 

Is that a Toyo t1s by any chance with worn out edges.

 

yes mate.

Really surprised they didnt point it out to me when picking it up, i didnt realise it was that low but thats the trouble having a lowered car, cant see much unless you turn the wheel on full lock and have a look

 

Those old t1s were know for getting wiped out on the edges. That's why they swapped them to the R with the extra cuts to allow the tyre to sit flatter. You did well to get yours to wear so nice. I could never get more than a few thousand miles out of mine as the edges got eaten. I Swapped the tyres and never had the issue again.

 

I'm surprised its worn so nice aswell as the car is on the deck ( not silly unpractical low) just low.

 

100% tyre indicator

 

Yes it's a tyre wear indicator and just FYI, MOT rules and regs state that there has to be legal tread across 75% of the tyre surface. You can have an almost bold inner/outer edge and still be legal. Doesn't mean you'd wanna anchor up hard or try some enthusiastic driving on them.

There near legal limit, get them changed.

Ł2500 fine and 3 points per tyre if the plod catch you

 

I think technically that tyre shouldn't have passed the MoT, since all three indicators are worn, which means it's on or below 1.6mm. Lucky pass

 

I had the other front changed as that's all it needed to pass but looks like ill be getting this one done aswell.

Thanks chaps
