Can I still track these? Ot too worn?

Hi Nam,

Here’s my re71r and wanted to see if I can still track my tires. I’m looking to sign up for a 2day driving school. Should I replace my tires or can these still be used? I’m almost at the tread wear indicator bar.

Thanks,

They are fine I think. Better than fine actually. Hell they might even work with a little bit of rain!

Cheers,

Charlie

I would run them(and have! Lol)

Yes, I would run them. Just keep an eye on pressures and the outside shoulders. Put the best outside shoulder option on fronts. Have a great 2nd day!

Yes, looks OK
Be sure to check each tire during rest periods for uneven wear or any cords showing.

If it is a two day event then after the first day see how the wear has been on the fronts and decide if you want to rotate fronts to the rear.
