Tire Wear Calculator — Calculate Tire Life & Replacement Time

Tire Wear Calculator

Calculate how long your tires will last based on driving habits, tire type, and road conditions. Determine optimal tire replacement times and maximize your tire life.

Step 1: Tire Specifications

Understanding Tire Wear

Legal minimum tread depth is 1.6 mm in most countries. New tires typically have 8-10 mm tread depth. Tires should be replaced at 3 mm for optimal wet weather performance.

Step 2: Driving Parameters

Factors Affecting Tire Wear

Tire wear is affected by driving style, road conditions, tire maintenance, alignment, and climate. Aggressive driving and rough roads can reduce tire life by up to 50%.

Tire Wear Formula

Remaining Life = (Current Tread – Minimum Tread) ÷ (Annual Mileage × Wear Rate)

To calculate tire life: Subtract minimum tread depth (1.6 mm) from current tread depth, then divide by the product of annual mileage and wear rate (which varies by tire type and conditions).
