It's not the MOT you need to worry about, but the Vehicle Construction and Use regulations.  Messing with them is more serious as it affects insurance (you'll also need to tell them about your new wheels as it is a modification), type approvals and use on the road.

The rule of thumb is that no part of the tread may extend beyond the line of the wheel arch at the 12 o'clock position measured with a vertical rod running from 12 to 6 o'clock placed against the tyre at those two points and extending upwards.
