Digital tyre tread depth gauge

Yes their are quiet a few that approved snap-on do a good one that is excellent quality

I have also found a lot of sites without.
But then I have never seen that it is required and that really surprises me. I am also surprised that I have never heard ANY member of DVSA staff mention we ought to have them or know how to use them. I know it's really self evident, but people being what they are.......

wasnt aware we had ever had to have one.have only ever used a bit of a4 and some inventive origami and when i showed the ve concerned what/how i was doing it he seemed perfectly happy.admittedly that was probably a decade back.....all the ves/checks ive seen since seemed more interested in trying to ream me out for a recently tested vehicle/spotcheck or similar and when it becomes apparent that there aint nothing to see they bugger off without much else pretty rapid no matter how much you try to badger em for guidance etc with any of your current concerns.not enuff bods trying to test too many garages.most modern tyres tend not to have measurable tread of a great enuff width to meet the criteria in any case with edges etc moulded higher and the like.having said that i did fail one on it bout 3 weeks back but it aint as common as it used to be.

And don't forget to calibrate the manual tread guage every 6 months.

oh fook yeah,think i mentioned it a few yrs back.still aint seen an officially sanctioned required width guage yet tho,is there an actual rqmnt yet then?aint on our tool board of that im certain.but as you yourself steath will be aware the fact that they p+ad will severely limit any disciplinary sanction

Have you seen the tyre design's of a road legal tyre  make Toyo of a racing slick fitted to a road legal lotus Elise pocket rocket ?
