Regroovable…
Posted by Ron on November 3, 2006
Is there a way to determine the maximum depth a tire can be regrooved ?
Besides contacting the tire manufacturer and finding out exactly the thickness of the "undertread", the best way to assure yourself of how much you can cut away is to cut a section out of a scrap tire like the tires you will be regrooving. Our tires are all marked "REGROOVABLE" despite the fact that very few are ever regrooved. Regrooving is somewhat of an art and it is an art that few people possess. Unless you know what you are doing or feel confident that you know someone who does, I wouldn't recommend doing it.
