Tread depth in Goodrich MTs
« on: June 29, 2009, 16:34:56 »
Hi Ya

Does anyone know how deep the tread is in a new BFGoodrich MTs are.

I know I should have measured them when I first put them on, but I want some idea how long they are likely to last.

Thanks

Ed

You don't say what size, they vary quite alot with size.

I've got a new 225/75R16 here that I could measure if it helps.

Thanks Guys,

Tyre size is 235/70 R 16

I just want an idea, so please do put your stick in   :shocked: and give me the results, even if it isn't exactly the same size.  :oops:

Thanks everyone, that is most useful.

I think I am in the same position as Whits, they are much more "used" than I was expecting.

You wouldn't want to use MTs with 1.6mm of tread!
