When do you have to change your tire?
You will find in the tread of all tyres that there is a little piece of rubber which crosses the tread itself. When the tyre is new, and the groove part of the tread is OK, this mark will be seen at the bottom of the grooved section of your tyre. when the trye is worn, the grooved section of the tyre is very shallow and outer surface of the tyre (the part in contact with the road) is level with this mark, the tread depth has reached 6mm and has to be replaced. regards, Ade

How does the tread affect the grip of the tire?
it affects it greatly. For racing, the best tyres to use are called "slicks". This means that there is no tread on the tyre. The more tyre you have, the more grip you have. Road cars, however, need to have tread because the tread helps to grip in gravel and water. The tyre for normal road use is also designed so that it can get rid of the water that gets caught in the tread. As well, inflation of the tyre affects the surface area if under-inflated; the tread area collapses, even if you don't see much change with the naked eye. It makes a "mushy" less effective grip. If over-inflated, the tread has more pressure exerted on it from within, which widens the tread and lessens the grip on road surfaces.
