Your vehicle’s safety depends on the depth of your tyre tread, so it’s important to check your tyres regularly, especially before long journeys.
How do you check your tyre tread depth?
Checking the tread on your tyres is easy because all car, light truck and medium commercial tyres have tread wear indicator bars moulded into the tyre tread. These bars are located at the bottom of the tread grooves in several locations around the tyre. When the tyre is worn to the point where any of the bars become visibly flushed with the adjacent tread ribs, it’s time to replace the tyre.
