Will these tyres pass an MOT

As per pic, MOT in one month. Dont really get the 75% middle rule, does this inner edge fall into the 12.5% allowed on either edge? Seems a shame to scrap them for this small amount of wear..

IMO that might get an advisory but shouldn't fail. The legal minimum is 1.6 mm across 75% of the centre section of the tyre. My XF got an advisory as although they had 3mm over most of the surface the inner shoulders were below 1mm. EDIT: How deep is the tread in that right hand side channel? To be honest the tyres look well past their best. How old are they?

Tread wise look good to me.

Measurements are Outer 4mm Middle 3mm Inner 2.5mm/3mm NS OS respectively. I think the picture makes them worse than they are it was a bit of a mucky day, they are maybe 4/5 years old, 10000 miles?? will check later Thanks, Ray

1.6mm is the limit so you should be fine.

Look good to me, depends if you get a jobs worth 😅

Right hand side is on the limit of the wear bar. That means time to change.

Not wanting to sound like a negative Nora but that tyre belongs in the bin. Yes the legal limit is 1.6mm but when they get down close to that they don't shift water anywhere near as good as they should. I'd be changing it to be honest mate but it's your choice obviously. I would not run that tyre on anything fruity.

Still life left, and still perfectly legal. People always say when tyres get low they don't move water and you could aqua plane. Well don't go fast through standing water then, and yes the tyres don't have quite as much grip in the wet as they get low, well drive more sensibly then to compensate. There's far too much throwing away of perfectly good stuff jn our society! Ps I find low grip tyres in the wet means you can have fun at low speed!. When did you last have your tracking checked as inner wear on the front could be an alignment problem? Mac

Loads o life left in that yet and yes it will easily pass an MOT.

Is that a nail roughly in the center of the tyre? Its hard to tell as it also looks like a small slug :dont know:

Drive more carefully to compensate for your tyres, or slide about for more fun. Excellent :grin: I'm obviously out on my own on this one, and gladly. :thumb:

It's on the wear bar mate. I beg to differ.

No its not. Its impossible to tell how much is left on from a photo but that is clearly not on the wear bar. As the op has stated: Measurements are Outer 4mm Middle 3mm Inner 2.5mm/3mm NS OS respectively.

Thanks for all your varied responses. Checked the service history, these tyres were fitted in 2018 now done 10,000 miles as I thought. Toe and alignment checked at same time. I was under the impression 996 do tend to scrub the inners edge due to suspension set-up, is my car behaving differently to what you would expect after 10k? On a related matter N rated replacements (seem thin on the ground ATM) or same thing non-N rated. The rear are Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (N3 I think) cheers
