Send that pic to your safety compliance officer in a text and save his response. Ultimately it's your call.
No names left Thanks this. -
Nope. See where that chunk is missing from that tread? That means you have less than 2/32nds on that tire at that point, and even that tiny bit CAN be used against you.
Retired2015 Thanks this. -
I can't open your photo but it you think it's bad then sit there will your company puts a new tire on.Its just going to keep shreading to nothing.Like a member said it's your call.Instinktz Thanks this.

Anywhere the tread depth doesnt meet minimum requirements, they can require that tire to be replaced.Instinktz Thanks this.

If it was one of my trucks, we would be changing it out right now.
If you don't and get pulled into a scale and the officer sees it, you might be there for a little longer delay than you originally thought.Retired2015 Thanks this. -
That gal in that Seymour, Indiana scale would love to see that tire come in there. She was tough.
-
That pic link didn't download for me either. I followed it and will post it direct
baha Thanks this. -
I'd get that replaced ASAP. Is it loaded? I'd be really afraid to run that with a load on it.
