Tire Tread Depth?
Hi there! Looking for help guessing tire tread depth upon blowout for warranty. I've searched, and the best I have so far is that a typical 205/75 R14 starts at about 8/32 or 9/32. Tires were about 3 years old, maybe 20k of mileage (of use - may have more time on shelf), has been in hot (+105) and cold (0). This summer had concurrent days of blowouts on the front tires - one on the left, next day on the right. Any idea what *depth* the tire tread may have been when they blew? They just want an estimate, but I need it to be a realistic estimate. Attached is zoomed in pic of shredded blowout, both sides. I know there are lots of reasons the blowouts may have happened (too full, not full enough, load imbalance, made in Chna, incorrect calibration of braking, ST vs LT, lol). The depth is my missing link at the moment. Any help appreciated!!
(Including pics of both tires...brutal)
