Re: when do you change your tyres?
I change mine when people start pointing out they are getting a bit iffy, then I argue about it and normally do it about a week after that. The Russ at my local tyre place moans and says I get to much life out of my tyres and its not good for his business, lol.

Re: when do you change your tyres?
I agree with you muffles. Whilst there is a little bit of tread in the middle it will be fine but as soon as it is slick it *could* compromise the wet weather grip. You'll probably be fine so long as you're not hooning it but,.. well,... I've seen you ride
 You hoon!
