The law states atleast 1.6mm over 75% of the tyre so if it's just the outer edge that's thin then no but if it's all like that then yes
Hope this helps
Cheers craig
Because they are not gripping ......then yes be best to replace
The cars in front are New MINI Scotland
If they aren't gripping anymore then hot to be a yes. Also they look pretty close to needing changed anyway

I'm always replace tyres in pairs. It's not really necessary I know but I just feel safer if both tyres on the front, or rear, have had the same use and wear.

Most tyre manufacturers advise that you should always do that.

Most tyres are done by the time they've got 3mm left - there's a noticeable difference in wet grip about that time.
I rotate mine front to back to try and equalise wear, so I replace all 4 at the same time to get maximum benefit
Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs
I replace at 3mm too.
Interesting argument going on between tyre manufacturers recently. Michelin claiming their tyres are designed to work to "guarantee maximum effectiveness right down to 1.6mm” - this is in the face of calls to increase the minimum depth to something more: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-new...-in-safety-row. Not sure what I make of that, I've never had low-tread depth Michelins.
Eek!
I'm on 3mm on the Michelins on my Audi now and I can feel that it's not as good in the wet of late. Can only be the tyres.
Looking at replacement soon, but been waiting for the latest iteration of the pilot sport in the AO fitment to be available.
Not sure if I'd put AD08Rs on the Audi...
