When Do You Need to Replace the Tires?
When the tread wears down to 2/32 of an inch a tire needs to be replaced. Hydroplaning is significantly more likely when driving on thin tread during rainy days. Sidewall cracks, uneven wear vibrations or a rougher ride are additional indicators that your tires need to be, if not replaced, then at least inspected by professionals. Given California weather – plenty of sunshine, i.e.: UV rays damaging the tires - tire industry recommends tire replacement after 6 years.
