Do I Need to Replace Tires? Outer Tread Wear

[JayceeP]

Garbage OEM hankook dynapro’s that everyone complains about with outer tread wear. Been fighting it since new. My Blizzaks don’t wear like this in the winter. I’ve run it 38-40 PSI fairly consistently and not much left. I’ve had alignments. I’d say the main tread is at least double the wear bar height, maybe even 3mm above. Are the outer treads too worn? I have a 200mi highway trip tomorrow with a jet ski to tow. Might just take my Yukon ffs.

First and 3rd pics are driver front. Middle pic is passenger front.

I would definitely recommend replacing them sooner rather than later…

that being said, I have run worse tires on much longer trips. Not recommending it but if it were mine, I would be ok running them on the trip then replacing when I get back.

Two threads on the same issue?

He did get 4X the replies and sooner from his thread in General. The thread title was different too, to reflect on it as an issue with the garbage OEM tires that Ford uses on some trucks ?

Mine wore very evenly, that being said these tires are very thin and give a compliant ride for sure, BUT run over anything of significance and its puncture time! I replaced these on two F150s due to road debris - replaced one set with Michelin (very good) and Toyo ATIII (excellent, but get noisier about 35K into the life). Will try another on my next set.

Replace the tires
Get an alignment
ROTATE tires MUCH more often

Single sided tread wear is an alignment issue. Both side tread wear is under inflation. Whoever did the alignment screwed it up. ...And if your get down to the wear bars... Even if only on that side... you must replace the tires.

Replace the tires.
Getting an alignment.
take your tires much more often.

What do your rear tires look like? I would assume they are not as worn as the front?
