uuChecking and Maintaining Tyres uWear Indicators
Wear Indicators
The groove where the wear indicator is
located is about 1.6 mm (about 1/16 inch)
shallower than elsewhere on the tyre. If the
tread has worn so that the indicator is
exposed, replace the tyre.
Worn out tyres have poor traction on wet
roads.
Tyre Service Life
The life of your tyres is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, road
conditions, vehicle loading, inflation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and
environmental conditions (even when the tyres are not in use).
In addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance, it is
recommended that you have annual inspections performed once the tyres reach five
years old. All tyres should be removed from service after 10 years from the date of
manufacture, regardless of their condition or state of wear.
1Checking Tyres
Have a dealer check the tyres if you feel a consistent
vibration while driving. New tyres and any that have
been removed and reinstalled should be properly
balanced.
