Evenly worn tyres
Evenly worn tyres
The requirements to be met by tyres are increasing continuously.
This is caused by the following factors:
t  increased vehicle weight
t  high speeds
t  high level of vehicle safety.
Greater loads on the tyre will, of course, lead to an increase in tyre wear.
Driving style has a critical effect on tyre wear. For this reason, customer claims regarding tyre wear on evenly worn tyres are not covered by the warranty.
The effective service life of a tyre can only be determined when the remaining tread depth has reached 2 mm (see diagrams → Anchor).
