Tire Inspection and Rotation
You need a new tire if any of the following statements
are true:
The tires on your vehicle are different sizes front to rear.
Due to this, your tires should not be rotated. Each tire
and wheel should be used only in the position it is in.
•
•
•
You can see the indicators at three or more places
around the tire.
You can see cord or fabric showing through the
tire’s rubber.
Check your tires and wheels regularly for unusual wear
and damage. Also see, Scheduled Maintenance on
page 6-4, When It Is Time for New Tires on page 5-72
and Wheel Replacement on page 5-75.
The tread or sidewall is cracked, cut or snagged
deep enough to show cord or fabric.
•
•
The tire has a bump, bulge or split.
When It Is Time for New Tires
The tire has a puncture, cut or other damage that
can’t be repaired well because of the size or
location of the damage.
One way to tell when it’s
time for new tires is to
check the treadwear
indicators, which will
appear when your tires
have only 1/16 inch
(1.6
mm) or less of tread
remaining. Some
commercial truck tires
may not have treadwear
indicators.
