Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers.

Motorcycle tyres and wheels — 2.0% of failures
Motorcycle tyres and wheels issues account for 2.0% of MOT failures on 1991 Honda Mt models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures.

Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
