The Morgan sports car has alloy blocks on the side of the chassis for this very purpose too .
Now if your tyres have rubbed through the plate and the plastic liner too then this is excessive and should fail , But just shiny marks on the metal plate put there for the purpose which is what you have where the tyres occasionaly rub when parking ,that is not a fail ...
ask for the appeal form!

I didn't take the car for MOT yet, but is due very shortly so will have to wait and see what will happend but at least now I know he can't fail the MOT on this problem
