3mm Tread Depth Equals Time To Change Your Tyres
3 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER!!!
Although 1.6mm is the legal limit independent tyre experts TyreSafe along with many vehicle manufactures, tyre brands and fleet providers agree 3mm should be the time where tyres are changed.
There is a massive drop in performance on a tyre which drops below 3mm, braking distances are hugely increased.
1.6mm is not a target, at 1.6mm you tyre is 100% worn. You wouldn't run your mobile phone battery down to 0% battery, you would charge it before it dies completely, the same applies here. At 3mm your tyres are around 80-90% worn and have served you well and have come to the end of the road!
