When to Replace

Car Tires

Every 6 years or 50,000 miles

Rubber degrades from heat, UV, and use. Worn tread reduces traction, especially in wet conditions.

Replace sooner if

  • Tread depth below 2/32 inch
  • Penny test shows Lincoln's head
  • Visible cracks in sidewall
  • Uneven wear patterns

Make it last

  • Rotate every 5,000-7,500 miles
  • Check pressure monthly when cold
  • Proper inflation prevents premature wear
