Last week my SS passed its MOT test but with an advisory that I wasn’t expecting. That said, I think it’s well worth checking now and again. The fault was cracking around the rubber tyre valve stem, visible when you put side pressure on it. I replaced the tube with a new Michelin heavy duty tube that has a plastic rather than rubber stem. The photo shows the new stem and the inset shows the old cracked one.
