Not sure if you need new tires? All you need to do is grab a penny for the penny tread test! The penny test is one of the oldest tire ‘tricks’ in the book when it comes to determining tire tread wear. Northgate Tire in Cincinnati, OH is familiar with the trick. What we like about the test is that it’s simple & anyone can conduct it! Did we mention that it is fun? We encourage you to not only conduct the test but to teach a friend or family member the test too.
Northgate Tire believes that informed drivers are the best drivers to have on the road!
Conducting the test:
• Take a penny and place it upside down in the tread groove
• If you see all of Lincoln’s head then it is time for new tires
• If the penny is at least as deep as Lincoln’s forehead then you have good tire tread
