Do tires need to be replaced after three years?

[DeAdeline]

The lifespan of tires is generally 3 to 5 years. Tires that have been in use for more than 3 years should be carefully inspected for signs of rubber cracking. If no cracks are found, they can continue to be used, but the wear on the tire tread should be monitored regularly. Below is relevant information about tire lifespan: 1. Fine cracks: If fine cracks are discovered during inspection, the safest approach is to replace the tire with a new one to prevent potential blowouts caused by aging tires, which could compromise driving safety. 2. Judging by tread depth: In the absence of bulges, cracks, or other damage, the need for tire replacement can be determined based on tread depth. Generally, when the tread wears down to about 2-3 millimeters, it is advisable for car owners to replace their tires to avoid potential safety hazards.
