Tire Tread Depth Federal Requirements
Per § 393.75, tire tread must meet minimum depth standards. Specific differences by axle position.
Minimum depths
- Steer tires: 4/32 of an inch
- Other axles (drive, trailer): 2/32 of an inch
- Hazmat-placarded vehicles: special requirements (5/32 + on steer)
How to measure
- Use a tire tread gauge or coin test
- Measure in two adjacent grooves
- Measure at multiple points around the tire
- Take the lowest depth reading
When measurement matters
- DVIR pre-trip inspection
- Annual DOT inspection
- Roadside inspection
- Pre-departure trip check
What inspectors look for
- Tread depth in adjacent grooves
- Cuts, punctures, or sidewall damage
- Ply separation (visible)
- Mismatched tire sizes
- Excessive wear pattern (indicating misalignment)
Tire age vs tread depth
- New tires: typically 22/32-32/32 tread
- Replace tires when:
- Steer at or below 4/32 (federal minimum + safety margin)
- Other at or below 2/32 (federal minimum)
- Damage requires replacement
- Excessive wear pattern (typically 4+ years for steer)
Cost-benefit
- A typical Class 8 steer tire = $400-700; lasts 80-100K miles
- Premature replacement adds $$$; late replacement risks OOS
Common tire violations
- Tread depth below minimum
- Sidewall damage
- Bead/cap separation
- Mismatched tires on dual position
- Improper inflation
Compass tracking
Compass Vehicles module:
- Tracks tire age by VIN
- Logs replacement events
- Flags vehicles approaching tread minimums based on usage
CFR citations
- 49 CFR § 393.75

Use this skill when the user asks about accident claims management — first-notice-of-loss procedures, working with insurance adjusters, claim severity classification, subrogation, claim closure timelines, and how to influence claim outcomes. Different from accident-investigation-playbook (which covers facts); this covers the insurance + claim side.

Use this skill when the user asks how to investigate a CMV accident — what to do at the scene, the first 24 hours, evidence preservation, who to call, preventability determination, ELD data preservation, dash cam review, witness interviews, working with insurance + attorney, and how to build a learning culture from incidents. Reference 49 CFR 392.7 + insurance industry best practices.
