Let’s take for example a tire that would cost you $7,000 if it was new.
New, the depth of the tire should be 50/32th but it is worn and is currently 29/32th deep. Here’s how to use the tool:
New tire price: Enter the value of the tire as if it was new.
Original tread depth: Enter the depth of the new tire.
End of life tread depth: Tires smaller than 29.5R25 are usually removed at 10/32th while 29.5R25 or larger tires are removed at 15/32th.
Current tread depth: Enter the current tire depth. If the wear is uneven, enter the smallest depth.
Used tire devaluation: The fact that the tire is used causes it to lose a little more value than its level of wear. So, if the tire is in great condition, the devaluation would be around 10% while the standard would be between 15 and 20%.
