You could say that about any tyre. But recutting a tyre doesn't make it more likely to blow outWellCapo wrote: ↑Tue May 16, 2023 8:33 amCatastrophic if it does

Re: Defected this tyre but tyre fitter passed it as legal, it’s on front driver side of tractor unit. So it’s completely
Using your analogy a tyre at 10mm is more likely to blow than one at 14mm. Why not replace then? The tread depth doesn't have a significant affect on the likelihood of a blow out, if your company want to replace at 3mm that is fine but it doesn't mean running them down to the limit drastically incr...

They are no weaker or more likely to blow out at all. They are made to be recut. The strength of the tyre is not in the tyre tread 😂 I'd rather have recut decent tyre than a new Chinese piece of sh*t. As said you do what you like put Japanese tyre's on if you like. I've never had a blow out because...
