[QUOTE=m4a1mustang;901801]Where are you measuring? If you go too far to the outside you end up measuring in the area where the tread blocks taper into the shoulder of the tire, which would read lower than the rest of the tread. If you can, post some pics.

An excellent point, but the tread in question is about 3 inches "in" from the sidewall. I wouldn't think the taper would be so severe that far away from the sidewall.

I'm starting to wonder if I can get another few months out of these tires since all the other measurements still show 4/32nds.
