Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I don't think you could argue the central 75% is good so no, they really are past it safety wise anyway to be fair

Thanks. Yes the middle has approx 4-5mm left but probably worth changing.

They may pass an NCT but it is a minimum thread depth. With cold weather, icy roads covered in leaves I would really be buying 4 brand new tires. At the end of the day it is the only thing keeping your car going straight and out of the hedge.

Keep an eye on the pressures on the new tyres, they look to have been running underinflated for a long time.

I'd book in for a 4 wheel alignment with that wear, both tracking and camber, something is out.
