Look at the treads. If the bars look worn close to the troughs then you're probably due.

The penny test is always good - Put a penny upside down into on of the treads. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head you should replace your tires right away. If you only see part of his head, you should start shopping for tires. If you can' see the hair on his head, then your tires are still good.

The average tire needs to be replaced every 50,000 miles or so, so keep track of when you change your tires each time.
