Tire Wear of 6/32
Posted by Tim on June 24, 2006
What does tire wear of 6/32 mean?
Tire tread depths are typically listed in terms of 32nds of an inch. For example, a new steer axle tire for a line haul truck might would be about 18/32's of tread depth when the tire is new. "Wear of 6/32" should mean that 6/32nds of an inch of tread has been worn away.
