Are your tires BAD OR GOOD? Know when your tires are unsafe and need to be changed 

Also, you should not keep your tires more than 6 years or older. Check the manufacturing date stamped on the inside of the tire. It's the 4 digits inside an elongated circle or oval. The first 2 digits represent the # of the week out of 52 and the last 2 digits the year. So, don't buy tires that have been siting in the store for years. They start suffering from dry rot.

Thank you so much! 🙂 I am always mystified about when I'm supposed to change my tires. I dont always trust car mechanics to be honest about it. Now I am confident that I can determine it for myself. And there's a guage for it? Terrific! Thanks again!

I've watched a few videos like this and this was the easiest to understand. Very informative. Thanks Mr car guy!

This was just what I was looking for. Explained things better than the other videos I watched. Thank you!

Brock, Prior to watching your video, I had no idea on how to evaluate tire tread. Afterwards, I definitely feel a lot more comfortable examining my tires. Also, your inclusion of the tools to gauge tire tread was awesome, thank you for that! There is one thing that I wish you would've included. I am a largely visual learner and it would've been helpful to me if you had included a close-up split frame of a good tire's tread in comparison to a used tire. Thanks for your help!

oh god, this guy looks alike the guy in the half life video game, thanks for the video

This was by far the most educational video. Thank you

Very concise, clear, and helpful, thank you!

Thanks buddy

Wonderful video. Thank you from Bhutan!

Car Guy, that was very helpful. A little information can go a long way in your safety and pocketbook.

Very helpful!!!

Very good video. thanks for posting. I remember the guy Mr. Slugworh in old Wonka movie though.

Thanks for the very informative video, that's taught me the new thing. I never know how to read tires before. As the everyday driver that's my mistake.Good work...................

Very informative video, thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for this video. It was very informative. I want to get a tread card. I wasn’t aware they existed.

Very clear and easy to understand! Thank you!

Excellent and informative video Sir. Thanks a ton from India.

That's really helpful. When I first saw the pile of old tyres in your video, I thought why on earth should someone throw them even before the threads wear out. Mine looks exactly the same and I think I should replace them asap. Also, how long does a tyre normally lasts? It's been 30000KM since mine was changed. Thanks again : -)

Just what I wanted to know, Thanks for posting :)

Thanks for the info! Great video explanation on a tire tread depth gauge. 😜

very useful, thank you for the knowledge

Very informative video. Thank you sir

Thanks a lot. Good job

Extremely helpful

You did not mention about the cracks and separation and also the age of tires that need to be replaced.

thanks for the information

thanks for your video. helpful.

After a tyre replacement you could feel everything is different.handling,breaking,comfort and road noise

Good and thank you.

I have good amount of tire left in middle of the tire but my corners are clean as ice, should I change or still drive?

You look right past a real sport tire and pointed at and all season

Great vid thanks👍🏽

It was a helpful video and I have a question from where did you buy the card ?

Also good roads with no potholes help

Great vid thanks

Any chance of putting tyre wear measurement in millimetres as well? That's what we use in the UK.

Thanks

excellent

Where can I purchase this card?

They are not called "wear bars". They are called "Tread Wear Indicators" which is why many tires have. TWI on the shouldwr or the small trianges at various points on the shoulder to show you where you can find the tread wear indicators. It's also not called a "Tread measurement little trick". It's called a "tread depth guage" The best advice is, go to your local tire store as often as possible, almost all of them will do a free pressure and condition check and you can actually see it measured with the correct guage yourself. Also do not measure one groove of the tire, measure all of them. In extreme cases you can measure all grooves well above the legal limit and still have a dangerous tire so please get a professional to check them at least once a month.

You also don't run a tire that is to old,the year it was made is embossed on the sidewalk.Over 7yrs old is becoming unsafe &could fail

What happens to all the used tires

I’m looking for a quiet set of tires for my 2016 Ford Transit Connect Titanium. The OEM tires are horrible! (Continental ContiPro) Please suggest a 60,000 (or up to) 90,000 warranty tire. Thank you

Some of those tires look good enough to continue to be used. We're spoiled in this country.

Thank you :)

What's the best tire for ls430?

thanks a lot

Are you in to wholesale bro?

Not clear off.what's spec of TWI

What about small cracks on the side of the tire?

there's more numbers as you move around what do they mean

seconds? i thought it was inches?

Where do I get products u used 2 demonstrate

Is it ok to buy a 6/32nd ? It's obviously used but is that safe enough?

I thought this was Jackass 😂

Anyone else see the resemblance to HOUSE? Just saying. Haha

Tires last a very long time...
