Tires generally have 10/32 tread depth.

So rule of them is 70% life remaining.

If you run your tires down to bald, then yeah. If you replace them at 2/32 as you're supposed to, then there is only 62.5% (5/8) of life remaining.

That is really fun though. If you have a car that you really don't care about and drive in a somewhat rural area, bald tires are fun for drifting and such. REALLY bad in the rain though.

Yeah, willfully endangering everyone else on the road is so much fun. Everyone should do it. :roll:
