Most part worn tyres have around 3-4mm on them. I change my tyres at 3mm on my road car because of things like thisif part warn tyres have much more than 4mm why has someone taken them off? Do you really want to risk your life for a few quid?

I couldn't agree more and heaven knows what the sidewalls have been subjected to - serious kerbing etc.

The part worn will be going on the spare to get it through the MOT for the time being as I'll be putting my current spare on the car.

I'll need a full set of tyres early in the new year so will replace all of them then

Save your money for new ones then as the spare is not part of the MOT

If you're trying mail order give Camskill a go, we use them for the work cars (360/M3/S4).

Watch out for the locals. They's not right, they's not.
