Authentic MOT centres carry out this test every year to provide a valid certificate. This certificate proves that the car meets all the safety guidelines.Faulty cars are unsafe on roads. Therefore, the Government of the UK ensures that all the vehicles on the roads are roadworthy. Generally, car drivers ignore proper maintenance of their vehicles. These drivers are not able to neglect the MOT guidelines since it is a legal test. The MOT test is different from a car service schedule. You must submit your vehicle to an authentic MOT centre to get the certificate. So, you will not get the certificate if you do not effectively maintain your vehicle. There are a lot of faults in your car that you may avoid easily. There are a lot of parts that the MOT tester is going to check during the MOT test including your car tyres. In this blog, we will talk about the faults in your tyres. The MOT tester does not like these faults. They would not let you drive your car on roads because of these issues. Tyres are vital for your vehicle. They directly touch the road surface and keep your vehicle stable on the road. Therefore, you have to keep your tyres always in good condition. Bald mechanical condition of your tyres will affect the level of performance and road safety. Moreover, you would not get your MOT certificate because of your sick car tyres. So, examine your tyres for the following faults before the MOT test:Wrong inflation level:Check the air pressure at the time of the MOT test. Actually, you must check the air pressure in your car tyres at regular intervals. The functions of your tyres depend on the correct inflation level. They would not be able to carry a load of your vehicle without proper air pressure. Moreover, your tyres cannot make a perfect contact patch if you do not keep the inflation at the correct level. The MOT tester is aware of the importance of air pressure in car tyres. Therefore, he will treat wrong inflation as a fault. As a result, you may not get the certificate just because of high or low air pressure in the car tyres. Bulges, cracks and cuts on the sidewall:The MOT tester would like to see bulges or cracks on the sidewall of your tyres. These signs indicate poor health condition of the car tyres. Cracks and minor cuts on the sidewall show that your tyres are ageing. According to the safety guidelines, you should change your old and worn tyres. Bulges on the tyres take place due to impact damage. They are like time bombs that may explode at any time. Therefore, you must change your tyres as soon as possible if they have bulges or blisters on their sidewall. Treadwear:Tyre tread is an essential part of tyres. It is responsible to maintain proper grip and traction on varied road surfaces. Tyre tread wears out over time due to the factors like heat, friction, weather and road surfaces. When the tread depth reaches the level of 1.6mm, you have to change your tyres. If you do not change your tyres before the test, the centre would not let you drive your car. Bald tyres are highly risky for the driver and other road users. They are more likely to face the issues like punctures, and blowouts. Moreover, bald tyres will face issues like hydroplaning in wet road conditions. Your tester would not provide the MOT certificate because of these reasons. So, it is better you reach the MOT centre with proper tread depth in your tyres. Bad alignment and balancing:Check the wheel alignment and balancing by visiting a garage as well. Bad alignment and balancing affects the handling features of your car tyres. Moreover, uneven tread wear takes place due to these issues as well. Thus, the MOT Tooting;tester will not tolerate these issues because of the aftereffects. ;" ]
