At Sid Dillon Hyundai, we hear questions like “Why is tire tread depth important,” and “How do I check tire tread wear?” every day. Tire treads are important because they grip the road as you drive through Crete. Learning how to check tire tread depth is a simple task that can be done in a few minutes using tools from around the house.
Over time, your tire treads wear down and become less effective at helping you control your vehicle on the Omaha streets. Maintaining solid tread depth is critical for hazard-free driving and peace of mind behind the wheel. Review our service tips below to learn how to check tire tread depth.
New tires for passenger vehicles typically have a tread depth of about 10/32 or 11/32 of an inch (about a third of an inch). Tires intended for trucks, SUVs, and winter use often have deeper grooves. Regardless of the type, the U.S. Department of Transportation recommends replacing your tires when the tread measures 2/32 of an inch or less. Proper tread depth is critical for safe driving, so keeping an eye on your tires is always recommended.
While a ruler will offer exact measurements, you can actually use a standard U.S penny to measure your tread depth! The design of the penny makes it the perfect tool for measuring tread wear, just follow these steps:
If you don’t have a penny nearby, don’t sweat it. There are other tools you can use to check the treads of your tires:
Now that you know how to check the treads on your tires, you can assess whether or not you need a replacement before hitting the Seward streets. You can rely on Sid Dillon Hyundai for all of your tire car needs. Along with teaching you about tread wear, our team can explain your TPMS and how to check your tire pressure!
