1- Location of the tread wear indicator
2- Tread wear indicator
Tread wear indicators are built into the origi-
nal equipment tires on your vehicle to help
you know when your tires should be replaced.
Many states have laws requiring that you

replace your tires at this point.
These indicators are molded into the bottom
of the tread grooves and will appear when the
tire tread is worn down to 1/16 inch (1.6
mm).
When the bands appear next to one another in
two or more places, replace your tires.
NOTE
 Tire wear indicators can have different marks
and locations depending on the tire manufac-
turer.

However, the timing for tire rotation
may vary according to your vehicle
condition, road surface conditions,
and your own personal driving hab-
its. Any time you notice unusual
wear, rotate your tires as soon as pos-
sible.
When rotating tires, check for
