Tires are one of the most important parts of your car, and they need to be replaced when they are worn out. Here are a few warning signs that you need to replace your tires:
If you see any of these warning signs, you should have your tires inspected by a qualified mechanic.
- The tread depth is less than 2/32 inches. The tread depth is the measurement of the depth of the grooves in the tire. The grooves are designed to channel water away from the tire, so if the tread depth is too low, the tire will not be able to provide good traction in wet conditions.
- The tires are cracked or worn. Cracks and wear can indicate that the tire is old and worn out.
- The tires are unevenly worn. Uneven wear can indicate that the tires are not properly inflated or that the alignment of the car is off.
- The tires are flat. If a tire is flat, it needs to be repaired or replaced.
