Every time you check your tire pressure, carefully inspect your tires for mechanical damage to the tread and sidewalls, small stones, nails, or similar objects lodged in the tread, and signs of severe tread wear.
Be especially alert to the following tire defects:
- local swelling or bulging of the carcass in the tread area or on the sidewalls. A tire with such a defect is subject to replacement;
- cuts, cracks or delamination of the sidewall carcass. Replace the tire if the carcass cord is exposed;
- maximum wear of the tire tread.
The tires that the car is equipped with have wear limit indicators molded into the tread. When the tread depth decreases to 1.6 mm, smooth transverse stripes 12.7 mm wide appear on its surface, located at a certain pitch around the tire circumference.
Worn tires do not provide sufficient traction when driving on wet road surfaces. Therefore, the tire must be replaced if three wear indicators are visible on the tread (or more than three).
