In Reply to: Hey OTM - what is tread depth on a Hummer tire posted by AAA on Friday, May 27, 2005 at 9:32AM :

probably about 15 to 17 32nd
tread depth is measured in 32nd of an inch
100% worn is when 2/32 tread is remaining
the wear bars are 2/32 so when the wear bars
show the tire is done
federal law requires over the road trucks
have min 4/32 on front axle tires
now the life is not a straight line with the
tread depth new tires wear the most when they have full tread depth and qive quite a bit of their wear (or Mileage) between 2 & 4 32nds tread remaining
time to put on new tires is WINTER not spring or summer when the will wear the most
best idea - visit a real TRUCK TIRE shop (not a store with a lot of chrome wheels in the show room) and take a look at some tech data books
