WHAT CAUSES TIRE WEAR?
There are many factors that can cause tire wear on your Chevrolet tires, such as your driving style and tire maintenance habits. New tires are absolutely needed when the tread wear indicators appear. A tire’s built-in tread wear indicators look like narrow strips of smooth rubber across the tread and become visible as the tire surface wears.

ALL-TERRAIN TIRES
All-terrain tires provide good performance on most road surfaces, in most weather conditions, and for off-road driving. The tread pattern on these tires may wear more quickly than others. Consider rotating these tires more frequently than the recommended 7,500 miles if you notice irregular wear.
