Ask for a depth picture. IE put a penny in the tread lines and use your common sense to see how much tread is left. If you give me your email i can send you a pic of a pair of ET Streets with 8 passes to show you what im talking about.

Those tires there have about half life left in them or half life off of them. Either way I would say that tire is about half used up. Oh and another thing you need to look out for is tire age. Just because a tire has tread on it dosen't mean it is still good the tread compond gets hard as the tire ages. I would not run any tire on a 400+HP car that is more than 8 monthes old no matter how much tread was on it. just a little food for thought.
