[ "Basic reasons to fail the MOT because of tyresAsk yourself  when did you last inspected your Bridgestone Tyres Reading? Can't remember? You are not the only one. Cars are usually so trustworthy today that most of us do not bother to check things like oils or coolants very often. We assume it is just as okay to avoid checking our tyres, let alone regularly, which might be a serious safety risk. This is not good but worse yet.How do we know?;A whopping 10% of all MOT test failures across the country are due to tyre failures.Worn out or damaged car tyresAn MOT test ensures that your vehicle is not only safe for you and your passengers, but also for all other road users. Many of the criteria  from axles to brakes, driver visibility  and much more are controlled. The number one issue is: - worn down treads, out of 10 per cent of MOT-checks caused by tyres.Tyre treads are super important. The treads were first invented in the year 1904 and are rubber grooves that remove water from the "contact area" between the wheels, tyre and the road. It allows the driver to brake, steer, and accelerate traction, providing the tyres, all of which keep the car under control and the people inside and around it safe. When the strands are worn, the wheels are actively dangerous, so that a minimum winding depth of 1.6mm is available legally.Tread damageAnd it's time to consider a new set of tyres if the tread looks shallow, and the tyre surface is somewhat sparkling or bald. Put a 20p piece in the tyres tread (in several places across the width of a tyre), make sure the UK is legalHow to extend your tyres lifeTake a look at the pressure of your tyreYour tyres will wear evenly, and they will also be safer and fuel-efficient if you have tyre inflation at the right levels.Avoid partially worn wheelsTeams of Council Trading Standards reported that partially worn-out tyres are sold with unsafe repairs and improper labelling.Cuts and bulges on the sidewall of the tyreYour tyres sidewall resists the pressures and stabilise the car. Usually, it is a sign of serious damage to the structure of the shaft when you see a tear or a bubble on your sidewall. It is important that a tyre expert checks the damage immediately. If such damage is perceived by an MOT inspector, it will cause an immediate failure  without exception.Sidewall damage prevention tipsDon't drive over kerbsMany sidewall damages begin with a hard bang or scraping against a sandstone or pavement. This may also lead to long-term wheels damage if you spit the tyres regularly during parking.Try to avoid driving over potholesIt is quite difficult to avoid driving over potholes. However, they can seriously damage your tyres treads and lead to deteriorating their overall life.MOT inspectors will also look for debris damage. They may cause permanent damage to Car Tyres Reading, including piercing and sidewall failures if they are left to linger. The sooner you can remove them, the less risk of permanent damage." ]
