3. The car tires play a vital role in
ensuring you can drive smoothly no
matter what the weather may be.
They allow your car to move from
one direction to another, with the
help of the engine and the rest of the
car parts, and also staying on the
road as they are the ones that grip to
the road surface.
4. As you continue to use your car, the tread
will become thinner to a point that it will
nearly reach the wear bars of the tires. This
is the situation that tires are already bald.
5. According to experts, once a car tire
goes bald, it is recommended that you
replace it immediately because of the
dangers that come with it.
6. If you have been driving for years, you
can easily check the measurement of your car
tire tread using a commercially available
gauge. Ideally, it should be greater than or
equal to 1/16 inches for safe driving in normal
conditions. However, during rainy seasons
when the tires need more grip, the tread
should be twice as thick as above.
7. The indicator bars are a thin band
of rubber that has been built into
the car tire’s tread area and are
commonly found in modern or
new cars. As such, when your car
tires start to bald, you might see
one of these appearing and when
they are wearing out, you’ll see
more of it.
8. As a driver, you must always be observant with any
changes in your car, including the unfamiliar
sounds that they produce.
For cars that are balding or bald, you might hear
squealing or humming sound each time you
rotate your car.

10. Apparently, reduced tire tread depth also
means that the tire is thinning out. As
such, the tire can be punctured easily and
may blow out when you put pressure in it.
Tire blowouts may also happen because of
overheating. That is because there is a
reduction of airflow in the car tire grooves
11. The pressure of bald tires easily
reduces, so you would consume
fuel more than usual. This is
dangerous because you might
end up running out of gas in the
middle of traffic or of nowhere.
Also, the loss of pressure will also
lead to your car’s poor
performance.
12. Bald tires will have less traction,
so you would expect that when it
is raining, which is very
unpredictable in the Philippines,
your car might skid and/or slip
when there are strong winds and
when the road is too wet.
13. What is worst that the car can
even hydroplane, making you
totally lose control of the car.
Apart from that, when you have
bald tires, the steering wheel also
tends to shake and you would
have trouble with the brakes.
14. #1 Make sure that you have enough distance from the vehicle in
front of you so that you can brake safely when needed.
#2 Before hitting the brake, ensure that you release the gas slowly
so that the car decelerates, so once you hit the brake, it will
recognize it better.
15. #3 Always drive using a low gear
especially when you're on an uphill
or downhill road, as well as when it
is raining or windy.
#4 Drive slowly and try not to use
cruise control.
16. Driving on bald tires is a big no-no
since you are not just exposing your
car to damages but also endangering
your and other people’s lives.
That said, when you really need to
drive your car on bald tires, make
sure that you are always alert and
you go at a slow speed.
