2 Check treads as well as outer and inner side walls of all tires for damage such as cuts, punctures, cracks, breakouts, peelings and ingressed foreign objects. If there is a problem:

Replace damaged tires.

3 Evaluate wear pattern of tires on front and rear axle. IMPORTANT Greater wear at the shoulder compared to the center of the tire is normal for the front wheel- and-tire assemblies. On the tires of the rear wheel-and-tire assemblies the wear at the center of the tread depth is mostly somewhat more pronounced than at the tire shoulders.
If there is a problem:

Determine cause, rectify it and, if necessary, replace worn tires.

4 Evaluate tire tread depth of tires on front and rear axle. IMPORTANT Assess tire tread depth at point of greatest wear. Assess at outside, inside and center of main tread using treadwear indicators. The height of the treadwear indicators is 1.6 mm (0.06 ").
IMPORTANT For safety reasons tires should be replaced before reaching the minimum tread depth.
Summer tires: At approx. 3 mm (0.12") tire tread depth.
Winter tires: At approx. 4 mm (0.16") tire tread depth.
If minimum tread depth has been reached:

Replace worn tires.
