Tread wear indicator

Tyre replacement

If the tyre is worn evenly, a tread wear
indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread. This shows there is less
than 1.6 mm (1/16 inch) of tread left on
the tyre. Replace the tyre when this
happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear across
the entire tread before replacing the tyre.
