With an easy to read tread safety scale, it doesn't take a genius to use this handy unit and monitor the life of your tyres at any given moment. A tyre depth gauge is used to measure the amount of tread left on your tyres which is crucial in tyre health, grip capabilities and wet-weather handling. Having bald tyres is an accident waiting to happen, without the necessary channels in the tyre tread pattern, water cannot be shifted from underneath the tyre and can cause the car to aqua plane, leaving you with no control of steering or stopping. As an indication of how hard a healthy tyre works, in heavy rain each tyre can disperse 1 gallon of water every second, so if you're driving for 30 minutes in heavy rain, a total of 120 gallons of water has been shifted from under your tyres. Check your local laws as a minimum tread depth is mandatory for a tyre to be considered legal and roadworthy, with a Slime Tread Depth Gauge, you can know exactly when to change your tyres to stay as safe as possible on the road.
