How Thick Are Tires?

[GeorgeMarie]

The tread thickness of car tires is generally around 13-15mm, but the specific thickness depends on the tire model. Due to different aspect ratios, the thickness of tire sidewalls varies across different vehicle models and tire types. The tread consists of the tread pattern and the crown. For ordinary household car tires, the front crown thickness is approximately 13mm (with the tread pattern being about 7mm thick and the crown around 6mm), while the sidewall is thinner, with a thickness of about 5mm. Below is some relevant information about tires: Tire lifespan: The wear life of tires is typically 30,000-50,000 kilometers. If the tire has not reached the wear limit or mileage but has been in use for 5 years or shows significant cracks on the sidewall, it should be replaced. Tire material: The main component of tires is rubber. Rubber, from natural latex to EPDM and nitrile, has a maximum storage and anti-aging period of no more than 10 years. The average service life of various rubber products in use is 3-5 years.
