    I've pulled trailers that I would have celebrated had a single tire on the trailer looked as good as that one does.

    Well, it's at least legal. Personally I would run it, but keep an eye on it.

    (b) Any tire on the front wheels of a bus, truck, or truck tractor shall have a tread groove pattern depth of at least 4⁄32 of an inch when measured at any point on a major tread groove. The measurements shall not be made where tie bars, humps, or fillets are located.

    (c) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, tires shall have a tread groove pattern depth of at least 2⁄32 of an inch when measured in a major tread groove. The measurement shall not be made where tie bars, humps or fillets are located.

    Ahhh that's nothing man, I'd run it. As long as that outer line on the tire exists, and you haven't got to the second layer, you're good.
