To check whether you’ve hit the 2/32-inch mark, use the penny test as follows:

· Place a penny in a tire tread groove with Lincoln’s head face first in the groove.

· Check if Lincoln’s face on the penny disappears between the grooves.

· If it does, your tread is still above 2/32 inches. If you can see all of Lincoln’s face, it’s time to replace your tire.

· Make sure to repeat with all tires and in various places on each tire.

There are a few other ways for drivers in Lodi to check tire tread depth, including using a tread depth gauge and tread wear indicator bars
