I have no idea what happened to this tire because the entire rest of the tire has deep tread and everything is good except for just that one spot.
It was like that when I bought the trailer.
Is this tire legal?

Reg says two or more grooves. What is the depth?

That looks like just a cosmetic mold defect. Just extra flash that didn’t take the proper shape in the mold. Take to a tire shop that has a regrooving machine and have them cut it out of the groove. Its legal but ugly and It won’t hurt anything but may make some noise as it wears. They should have sent it back for 100% credit when it was new. It is too late for them to return for defect credit now. Bet you $100 they probably didn’t even notice it at install.

I can see the secondary casing. It would not pass DOT in my shop.

If you’ve ever been offered to buy “blems” at a reduced rate that is an example of that. Still safe but not cosmetically perfect.
