the tread is the wear marker, when it almost gone, get a new one, or perhaps alittle sooner. my last tire got to threads (about 100 mile after the tread is gone). Not safe, no grip.

Every DOT tire should have a mark down inside the tred.... so when your tread gets down to that safety marker, its time to get a new tire. There should be a marker down in the sides of the tred as well as in the center.... the marker isaround 1/16-1/8" high from the bottom of the tred
