    Depends on the circumstances.

    I don't go by the indicator. Usually when the outer rim are slick or near slick.
    Or
    If I get a flat and the tread is pretty worn rather than pay $10 for a repair I'll buy a new (used) tire for $40.
    or
    If I'm changing one tire out I also replace the other one (2 rears or 2 fronts at the same time).

    I never buy new tires, you have to be pretty retarded to do so when you can get a barely used tire for 1/2 the price of a new one. 1/2 the price 80% of the tread.

    what ?

    you have people take the wheels off, change the tires and have them put them back on ?

    is it because theyre your favourite/lucky wheels or because you cant afford another set of wheels.

    That does seem a little retarted. You can get a set of 4 rims for cheap at the used tire place or the breakers yard.

    ETA: After market rims are cheap as chips.

    truth be told its the almost-slick tires that give the most grip.

    I can tell when mine need changing...2 drops of rain on the road and my wheels start to spin as I leave a stop light or when I brake I slide as much as I brake.

    Going back to the rims I remember paying $1200 like an idiot years ago for 1 wheel from the dealership after a g/f had destroyed it. I took it to the tire place to put a tire on it and was telling they guy how much I paid for the rim and he said "I could have sold you one for $100".

    To double down on the dumbness I didn't even think about returning the $1200 rim and buying the $100 one off him. Clearly these were darker times as far as my intellect.

    this is normal.

    this condition is due to oil thats condensed on the road/tire/brake disc surfaces. just be less aggressive in the first few minutes of the rain.

    There is a "sliding" scale of normalness...the slippage and skidding is less pronounced on a tire with full tread.

    I don't need to look at my tire to know it's time to change it based on the slippiness...it's a bit like knowing if you need lube or not based on the age of the woman.
