When to replace my KO2s? I'm at 8/32+ Tire Tread (1 Viewer)

[DesertFishing]

When should I replace my KO2s? The quarter trick tells me I'm around 8/32 or 10/32 currently. The tires look pretty good. I'm doing some dirt & rock roads WABDR in a week and was wondering if it's time. I also run dedicated snow tires in the winter so I don't use the KO2 after Nov.

Thanks!

Had mine for 60k and still have half tread left. They are getting noisy.

I will replace them in the spring as they’ll be 5 years old. I won’t run tires for any longer than that - regardless of mileage. Too much time at 80+ to chance it.

Unless it rains a lot I don’t think there is much mud on wabdr this time of year.
I ran my duratracs down to 6/32 before I took them off

Based on the rubber aging picture, it wouldn't hurt to replace it. How old is the tires?

Age? I bought the rig used with the tires in Oct 2018 with 27K. DOT Code would suggest manufacture date end of 2015. The rubber does look like old man skin....

Me personally, I’d say it’s time.

Thanks for the input. Just ordered the new set. If it was borderline before my trip I wanted to reorder.

Really appreciate it.
