Legal tread depth requirements for tyres
If your car tyres don’t meet the minimum legal standards for tread depth, they’ll be less effective. As a result, braking distance will be longer and grip will be reduced, to the extent that your tyres will be deemed unsafe for use on the roads.
Your car will fail its MOT if your tyres have less than the legal requirement of tread depth. By driving on the roads with tyres that do not meet the legal standards, you could risk a fine of up to £2,500 and up to 3 points on your driving license for each tyre below the limit.
The minimum legal tread depth for tyres in the UK is 1.6 mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. In simple terms, that means if the tyre stands less than 1.6 mm above the central trenches that run across the tyre, it is not considered roadworthy.
We can check your tyres for you and advise if your tyres are safe and road legal.
The right set of tyres for your car can have a significant impact on your car’s performance; it influences braking distances, handling in the wet, ride comfort and fuel economy.
Our experts are here to offer a helping hand and provide free, impartial advice to assist you. Simply book an appointment or give us a call if you have any questions.
