Have you ever wondered, “How do I check tire tread wear?” You’re not alone! Our team here at Ray Brandt Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is frequently asked about auto maintenance. The good news is that all you need is a ruler or penny! Learn how to check tire tread depth at home in Gretna! Learn more below, and be sure to contact us if you have any questions!
New tires have treads that are around 10/32 or 11/32 of an inch (about a third of an inch) deep. Certain specialty tires like winter tires, off-road tires, and some truck or SUV tires may use even deeper tread grooves.
If your tire treads are 2/32 of an inch or less, it’s time to replace your tires according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. Adequate tire tread depth is a must for safe driving in Marrero, and proper tire care can even extend to life of your tires. Be sure to rotate your tires frequently!
While a ruler is an accurate way to check tire tread depth, you can actually use a penny to measure tread depth! Follow these steps to learn how to check the tread depth remaining on your tires.
There are special tools you can get from a New Orleans auto parts store to check your tires, such as a tire tread depth gauge. There are also tread wear bars found on certain tires that have a visible mark which indicates the 2/32 inch mark. While you are checking your tire tread depth, some more things inspect include:
When you take your vehicle to our local service center, our factory certified technicians will be glad to check your tire tread. We would also be happy to teach you how to check tire tread depth, how to change the battery in a Jeep key fob and how long brake pads last!
