As some of you may know i've got some new alloys for my mini...
It has wider arches
the new wheels are 7 inches wide
the tyres ordered will stick out about 10mm either side of the wheel..
now i put one of the wheels on my mini today only to see JUST the wheel stick out just under 1/4 of an inch...
now i thought the law was no TREAD outside the arch area.. but my mums BF (used to work at ATS - doing MOT's) says you're allowed an inch of tyre sticking out before its a fail...
anyone got any information to hand on this.. dont want to have to extend my arches or whatever, that'd be a pain.
Thanks
