Correct answer
- Cla profundidad del dibujo sea inferior a 1,6 mm.the tread depth is less than 1.6 mm.
Explanation
The legal minimum tread depth for car tyres is 1.6 millimetres; below that, the tyres must be changed. Even so, with less than 3 mm a lot of the ability to clear water is already lost, so it is best not to wait until the minimum.
