Just wanted to get a sense of what you guys consider a good rule of thumb for tire replacement time, as far as tread depth goes??

I'm under the understanding that most of our tire setups are 10/32" or .3125" new, so at what point do you feel is the safest and most consistent measurement to USUALLY replace them under normal circumstances for normal everyday driving.....

exposed wear bars? (kidding, kind of)

a certain measure of mm or x/32's?

a certain mileage time?

a certain 'feel' you notice while driving?

Just curious, all opinions welcomed

On the street, if you drive in rain, I wouldn't go lower than the wear bars. Dry street or track, run 'em to the cords if they still grip.

Agreed, once you start wearing into the bars, wet performance will really start to suffer. I think this is usually around 2/32" of tread depth. One of my rear ps2s is down to the wear bar at the moment and I've noticed a lot of slippage lately. This is also probably due to my recently installed BPM tune though!

I use it only once then discard.
