Hi All,

Where's the best place to get an independant tyre report guys. We had a secondhand mini from a franchised dealer and it arrived with cracks in the treads and they say they are safe.

Take it to any reliable tyre fitter (I use indies rather than nationl chains)

Cracking is usually ok just age and not structural.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm missed that, I've never seen cracks in the tread before, only the sidewalls.
