My car is due its second MOT soon, I've noticed a small bulge on one of my asymmetrics. Clearly been a pinch in a pothole or something, no mark at all on the rim.

Will it fail its MOT?

I rather suspect it will, just need someone to confirm before I shell out another £150 for a new corner....

VeeDubDan:
Even it were to pass (not that I think it would) do you really want to drive around on a tyre that is showing signs of structural failure?!  Best get a new one.

matty_jetta:
I'm 98% sure it will fail. Besides do you want to go driving an unsafe car anyway?

no golf clubs at all:
Yep, expected as much. Will get onto blackcircles asap. thanks for the responses chaps.

iainalpine:
Its a DEFO MOT fail.
This make and model of tyre seem to be a little bad for this kind of fault. Have had to replace 3 so far, and im not one for not seeing the pot holes.
