Would having two front tyres with inside edge wear like this fail an MoT? I suspect if I have to ask the answer is in fact yes

 

I think you will be ok:-

"A minimum of 1.6mm in a continuous band throughout the central three-quarters of the tread width, throughout the whole of the circumference"

 

Who cares?

I'd not like to drive fast in a downpour on them.

 

I think you will be ok ..... but only just.

Yep perfectly legal.


"Each side of the central band of the tyre can be devoid of tread (ie.

Mine recently passed an MOT with tyres like that
