Worn tires—especially bald ones—can be deadly on wet roads, where the grooves arent deep enough to channel water out from beneath the tread. The result is hydroplaning, where the tread skims the waters surface and the vehicle no longer responds to the steering wheel. Wet-weather braking and snow traction also decrease as tires wear.

Running tire grooves down to 2/32 of an inch may be fine in arid regions where rain and snow are rare. But for rain or snow, you may want to consider replacing worn tires sooner, especially if you begin to experience reduced grip.
