I have clocked up about 30,000 KM on my BFG A/T's. The tread depth now averages 8.5 MM compared with 13MM on a new tyre. I am planning to do a considerable amount of touring this winter, including a Double Crossing of the Simpson with my 4WD club. At our first pre trip meeting we discussed the pros and cons of tread depth in relation to avoiding punctures. Obviously new tyres are better, but when is it adviseable to leave the worn set at home and outlay for at least four new tyres?

It always amuses me to hear stories of people getting huge mileages out of their tyres but are they actually still OK for the bush tracks?

What are your thoughts?
