Video tutorial

In this video, you can see how to measure the thickness of your tyres with an easy-to-read Vergo analogue thickness gauge, as shown by the YouTuber. You can find this device on Amazon with code B079RNKTF5 for £9.99 with free next-day delivery for Prime customers.

This gauge measures in increments of 1/10 mm and is easy to use. The dial has a diameter of 5 cm (2 inches), the reading is easy and accurate, and it does not require special experience or skills. Generally, a tyre is considered for recycling when it reaches 4 years of age, or when the tread wear reaches the reference indicators and thus no longer has grip on the road.
