Measure Tread Depth

B.

If the outer shoulder tread is visible, use a tread depth gauge to determine extent of wear. Measure tread depth at location shown in Figure
No. 2. If tread depth is 5/32" or

less, tire replacement will be necessary. If greater than 5/32", the tires should be rotated using the modified "X" pattern (See Figure No. 1). This method
will best equalize wear after a few thousand miles.
