There's several types of tire wear, I'll list a few of the most common: Low tread inside outside with good tread in the center = Too low air pressure. Low tread in the center with good tread on outer edges = Too high air pressure. Heavy wear on inside of both tires = camber and/or toe adjustment out. Heavy wear on outside of both tires = camber and/or tow adjustment out. Feathering or choppy wear = poor shocks and/or toe out of adjustment and/or unbalanced tire/s.
Don't tread on me! To tread upon the ground. Many people tread on he sidewalk each day.
A good test is to take a penny and place it in the tread grove with the head of Lincoln facing down. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head you need new tires. If the tread is worn more on the inside or outside you need a front end alignment. If the tread is worn on the outer edges you are running the tires with too low air pressure. Worn in the center, too much air pressure. Of course dry rotted and cracked tires need replacing no matter the tread depth.
As a verb, tread means the way someone is walking. As a noun, tread can mean the top of a stair (where you step on), or the tread of a tire.
