Default Is this tire done?
Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if this tire is done, or would you keep it for a few more miles? It is a 200-55-17, and it has 6k miles. Thanks.

Non uniform wear pattern. But, yup...it’s toast.

Might get a little dicey in a cloudburst or trapped in the tarsnake jungle. I'd change it.

When you can't see any tread, yeah, it's done. You could get more mileage out of a tire if you'd stop taking off fast. I had the tires on my Blackline last me 15k, twice and on my Breakout, 8500 miles, twice.
