Inspection Service:

• Measure tread depth
  • Minimum tread depth: 1.6 mm (0.0625 in.)

    If the tread depth is close to the legal permissible minimum, i.e. if the 1.6 mm high wear indicator spaced around the tire circumference no longer has any tread pattern, the customer must be informed.

    The tires should also be checked for scuffing, wear on one side, porous side walls, cuts and fractures.

    Any faults found must be reported to the customer.

• Check tread wear pattern:

The tread wear pattern on the front tires is an indication of whether the toe and camber settings need to be checked:

• "Feathering" on the tread indicates incorrect toe
• If the tread is worn on one side, this is usually caused by incorrect camber

  If wear of this nature is noticed, check wheel alignment.
