What is the treadwear rating of AD08R?
The AD08Rs are considered a 200 Tread Wear Extreme Performance Summer Tire and are available in 37 different sizes ranging in wheels sizes from 15 inches to 19 inches. Tires should be replaced when tread is worn to 2/32 or sooner. Treadwear indicators are built into Toyo tire treads to show the 2/32 depth. All states require that tires be replaced when the tread depth is worn to 2/32nd. Tires may lose sufficient wet and snow traction well before reaching 2/32nd of wear.Toyo Tires releases Proxes R888R The state-of the-art tyre has a tread wear rating of 100 AA A and is available nationwide from Toyo Tires specialist motorsport tyre dealers.
What is the 3% tire rule?

This guideline helps maintain proper vehicle performance, safety system functionality, and speedometer accuracy. As a general rule, you want replacement tires that are within 3 percent of the diameter (height) measurement of the tires originally on your vehicle.Tires are not safe and should be replaced when the tread is worn down to 2/32 of an inch.
What is the 7 7 rule for tires?
The 7 7 rule for tires provides a simple temperature guideline for timing your seasonal tire changes. Install winter tires when daily temperatures drop to 7°C (45°F) or below for seven consecutive days. Remove them in spring after seven straight days above 7°C. So, when is the right time to swap? The rule of thumb is 7-for-7: wait until there are seven consistent days at 7 degrees Celsius. The reverse is also true for transitioning to winter.

Are 7 year old tyres ok?
There is no definitive tyre age limit as to when you should replace your tyres but once your tyres reach 7-10 years old, you should keep a close eye on their condition and consider replacing them. Does the age of a tyre matter? Tyres are considered to be “new” and fit for retail up to 5 years from the date of production. This is an industry standard based on the German BRV. When in use, it is recommended that tyres are replaced when they reach 6 – 10 years old, (6 years in the case of caravans or trailers).Tyre lifespan Tyres should be removed once they reach ten years of age, regardless of appearance, mileage or actual wear. However, most tyres will need replacing before they reach the ten year mark.Miles driven, road conditions, driving style, maintenance and age all affect how long a tire lasts. Tires naturally wear the more they are driven and worn out tires provide reduced traction compared to those with adequate tread, especially in adverse weather conditions.
