Quick MOT question!

[Robb]

Hey all just a quick question regarding the mot. How long can wheel studs stick out from the wheels before they would fail an mot? Do they just have to be within the actual arch (like the tyre wall has to be)? Ive got 20mm spacers on the rears at the mo just incase (i presume they are fine too lol) but before i only had 10mm spacers on to finish the look, but with the same longer studs (the studs are about 20mm+ longer you see).

Thanks in advance!

They only care about rubber, if tyres stick out they kick gravel etc up. You should be fine as long as they don't stick out like 6 inches or sommat

i aint no mot tester but i would say if they stick out they should fail and it could hurt someone ie wing mirrors arent sharp they are curved if you get me

Cool, anyone else? The studs stick out about a further 20mm from the nuts with my 10mm spacers on now so im gonna see what happens. Cheers

Get some plastic caps to put over them, that's gotta pass then as it's not a danger to pedestrians
