I was at teh dealership two weeks ago for an oil change and they said rear tires are at 1 32nds and lowest recommended should be 2 32nds so they said i should replace them. The front tires are at 2 32nds.

Shoudl i replace them ASAP? and if so, shoudl i replace just the rear ones first or should i go ahead and replace all four of them now?

thanks

i would replace them all, seems pretty low, if you're mostly in a dry area its probably ok, but I would still replace them soon.

You better pray you don't hit rain.

This is my rear tire. As you can see, I'm barely touching the wear marker, and the tire is clearly worn.

anything @ or below 2/32 should be replaced immediately

When either my fronts or backs reach 2/32 they're replaced. If the other two are anywhere close, I just replace all 4.

In your situation I'd say you're overdue.
