Driving Lessons - Show Me Tell Me Questions - Tyre Tread Depth

Tell me how you would check the tyres to ensure that they have sufficient tread depth and that their general condition is safe to use on the road.

Check all the tyres have a minimum of 1.6mm of tread depth across the central ¾ of the breadth of the tyre and around the entire outer circumference. Also check the tyre wall has no cuts or bulges.

and feel free to have a shufty around the rest of the site :)

Is it central 3/4 all way round, what about outside tyre, it always wears down first
