    When to replace your tire when they look like racing slicks lol

  • @deseremere
    @deseremere Před 6 lety +98

    If you keep your car outside all the time in sunny states then the time to replace the tires is around 4 years, especially valid unfortunately for hard rubber high mileage warranty expensive tires. When you start notice that your old tires spin the moment you accelerate from red light during rain - time for replacement no matter what thread you have left.

    My used Chevy bolt came with 2 good tires almost brand new and 2 okay tires probably half worn when I got the car I just noticed the rotation of the tires doing more burnouts on front axle and then worn tires on the back axle kicking out in rain ran my finger over the tires and the tread bar is even almost to the tread got some tires coming in Friday my family always complains about me working on my cars and replacing parts but tires are scary slick in rain 😂 they lasted about 15K after I got the car in January, the other pair is like 🆕 got the bad tires on the front now going to change them out for some waterfall tires to see how good Michelin really is

    • @jman96camry
      @jman96camry Před 3 lety +3

      You would probably need a highway tire for long distances at high speeds I would check with tire rack or discount tire direct for the best tires for your tires but yes highway can wear some tires out quicker than others it depends on the tire rubber compound and the design of the tire

    In dry conditions on paved roads, a bald tire can perform better because it has a larger contact patch. The grooves in the tread are for channeling water and other particulates.

    @clock99times Před 3 lety +4

    Even though the tread wear is good, the first most important is the age of the tire, usually not more than 6 to 10 years old.

    It's been said the penny in the tread is outdated to " determine " tread depth . That a quarter is to be used instead ? Just buy a genuine tire tread depth gauge and use that !!! The new ones are marked with green , yellow and red . And use 303 Protectant to resist the drying out and cracking of your tires .

  • @christopherboucher2887
