Car tyre. Damaged. Is it safe to drive?

the damage penetrates the tread of the tyre, and goes to about -1mm.
it is the front left tyre of a corsa b. 165/70 r13.

also, where else can I find out more information. Should I post on other forums? or take it to a garage? fix it with glue? swap the tyre to the back?

Doesn't seem too bad, if it holds air it should be fine but I'd use it as a spare and get another for peace of mind

as above but id put it on the back if i was keeping it on

it could be illegal though as its split

Can get a part worn tyre for around 15-20 anyway bud

Looking at the pic i wud agree with raymod use it as a rear tyre as it would get less strain on it

nothing wrong with that tbh, its just the tread, just took the winter tires off my van and the whole inside edge of both tires are alot worse than that lol

would have to be an incredibly picky cop or mot tester to mention that.

Swap the wheels round so that its on the inside and nobody will ever see it
