Bridgestone Battlax Adventure tread depth.

Ive got a pair of Battlaxs on my S10 and was checking their tread this morning but couldn't find a depth indicator. I thought all tires came with one, unless I'm missing something.

Get yourself one of these.
They are usually only a couple Dollars.



If it reads 2/32nds or above, you're still good to go!
If it's 1/32nds or below, then I'd replace the tire.

Are you talking about "wear bars"? I call them worn out bars, 'cuz if they're even with the tread, the tire is worn out. But if you want to know exactly how much tread you have, Skunkworks is right.

I guess they should be called where bars....

Yeah, thats them, but my tires don't seem to have any. I've ordered myself one of those tools Skunkworks recommended and I'm pretty sure I've got PLENTY tread left but it just seems like a bit of an inconvenience that Bridgestone didn't put a couple on my ties.
