  2. Tire tread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_tread

    As tires are used, the tread is worn off, limiting its effectiveness in providing traction. A worn tire can often be retreaded. The word tread is often used casually to refer to the pattern of grooves molded into the rubber, but those grooves are correctly called the tread pattern, or simply the pattern. The grooves are not the tread, they are ...

  3. Bar grip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_grip

    This wear pattern was one reason for the practicing of rotating tyres between wheels, so that they spent equal periods wearing in each direction. Later, and better, patterns were the Dunlop 'Traction' tread pattern of 1922 and the 'Triple stud' pattern of 1927. These followed the same principle of a solid central rib with square-edged blocks ...

  4. Tire maintenance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_maintenance

    The chief reason for tire replacement is friction from moving contact with road surfaces, causing the tread on the outer perimeter of tires to eventually wear away. When the tread depth becomes too shallow, like for example below 3.2 mm (4/32 in), the tire is worn out and should be replaced.

  6. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

    Tire forces are divided into three axes: radial, lateral, and tangential (or fore-aft). The radial axis runs from the tire center toward the tread, and is the vertical axis running from the roadway through the tire center toward the vehicle. This axis supports the vehicle's weight. The lateral axis runs sideways across the tread.

  7. Groove wander - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groove_wander

    A mismatch between tire design and vehicle weight, or vehicle suspension design, or simply wheel alignment can all contribute to how severe the effect is. Tire tread pattern can also cause, with straight grooved tires more susceptible to groove wander than diagonal or zig zag threads.
