Tire Tread Inspection

~1min read

GENERAL INFORMATION.

Aggressive driving style, frequent

acceleration and hard braking contribute to intensive tire wear.

Warning.

Tires may be used until the tread depth reaches 1.6 mm, that is,

the tread grooves must have a depth of at least 1.6 mm over the entire tire surface. However, for safety reasons, it is recommended to replace tires when the tread depth is

3 mm.

M+S tires have sufficient road grip at a tread depth of at least 4 mm.

Inspect the tire for cuts and determine their depth. If cuts reach the cord, the steel cord will corrode from penetrating moisture.
