The other day, in a msg, I stated in response to a question that the
minimum depth for tires is 3/32nd of an inch.
Further info from the Tire Industry Safety Council says, "On vehicles
with a GVWR in excess of 10,000 pounds, federal regulations require that
tires on the front axle be removed when worn down to 4/32" depth".
It goes on to say that for improved handling and traction, it may be
desirable to replace tires prior to wearing down that far.
This info comes from their Recreational Vehicle Tire Care and Safety
Guide.
