Car Tyres in Durham: What UK MOT Tyre Data Shows
DVSA MOT data · 2024
Across the DH postcode area where Durham is located, 168,218 MOT tests were recorded in 2024 — covering roughly 164,458 vehicle records — with a first-attempt pass rate of 72.4%.
Tyres & Wheels accounted for 9.6% of MOT failures in this area in 2024 (9,566 recorded failures) — the single highest-volume tyre-and-wheel fault recorded was Tyre condition.
Most common failure categories overall: Brakes (23.3%), Suspension (21%), Electrical (20.8%).
Durham, County Durham hosts 23 active tyre garages listed in our directory. Tyre and wheel issues are among the most common UK MOT failures — across 559 million DVSA records, tyre tread depth alone is the single highest-volume reason cars fail their annual test. The legal minimum is 1.6mm of tread across the central three-quarters of the tyre.
- Tread depth below 1.6mm — the headline single-fault failure category in UK MOT data.
- Sidewall damage — cracks, bulges, or gouges that compromise the structural integrity of the tyre.
- Worn or damaged valve — small but recurring item — easily missed by car owners, simple fix at a tyre fitter.
- Mismatched tyres on same axle — different tread patterns or constructions on left/right cause MOT failure.
