Tread depth

What's the general minimum depth on a set of mud tires before they are due for replacing?

Mine are currently about 3mm in the centre and about 8mm on the edges, they look ready for replacement.

Cheers
Matt.

Whenever you get sick of not being able to get as far as you could!

You are running your pressures too high to have that sort of tread wear. I replace at about 5-8mm.

Read somewhere when you lose the first 10% you lose 80% of your traction and most people agree its around that
