Frequently asked.

Why does tyres on the same axle or… fail an MOT?
Tyres on the same axle or on twin wheels are different sizes. Most commonly flagged on the Renault Trafic Ll30 Sport Energy Dci. The DVSA's MOT standards require this item to meet minimum safety thresholds — when it falls short, the tester logs it as a Major or Dangerous defect and the car fails outright.
How much does it cost to fix tyres on the same axle or…?
Costs vary depending on the vehicle, region, and severity. Use our MOT cost estimator for typical UK garage rates across the most common failure items.
