-- Tread Depth, Checking

Minimum tread depth: 1.6 mm

NOTE:

This value may vary for individual countries due to different legislative regulations. Ask the importer.

The minimum tread depth is reached when the tires have worn down level with the 1.6 mm high tread wear indicators -arrows- positioned at intervals around the tire.

If the tread wear is close to the wear limits, inform customer and note findings on the repair order.
