Tyres good tread but dry cracking. Replace to pass MOT?

Just bought a second hand set of wheels with Michelin PS4s on. Replaced the rears as the tre,ad depth was just about legal (I live in the UK). The fronts have 4mm tread, but has dry cracking on the side wall. I have a MOT coming up (vehicle road worthy inspection/test) and I am wondering if these will pass, or should I get them replaced as well? I have done my research however it seems like there is no consensus and very different case by case so decided to ask you guys here.

BMW style 135 wheels on F22 M235i

Hi all, has anyone tried fitting 18 inch BMW style 135 wheels onto the F22 M235i? I have looked it up and it seems like no one has done it. Gemini seems to think the width and the offset is fine but I may have problems trying to fit the F22 M14 lug bolts into the lug holes on the wheels meant for M12 bolts, but then apparent most newer style 135 wheels will be fine?

F22 M235i N55 charge pipe recs

Hi fellas,

Question on charge pipe brands for F22 M235i non X drive. I want to upgrade the charge pipes and intercooler for my car, and I have bought a Masata intercooler already (see picture 1).

Now I'm looking at charge pipes. Which brands are best for fitment wise with my intercooler? I'm looking at do88 and FTP ATM, as they are cheaper than Forge, VRSF or MMX. Anyone got experience on any of those brands? The reason I am not considering Masata charge pipes is their UK store is down not sure what is going on with them so not gna risk poor customer support.

As you can see the do88 is like £120 cheaper than Forge Motorsport, but I have heard/ seen next to no reviews on do88 charge pipes.
