Bad tread on your tires refers to excessive wear or damage that affects the tire's ability to grip the road properly. This can lead to decreased traction, increased stopping distances, and a higher risk of hydroplaning in wet conditions. Indicators of bad tread include uneven wear patterns, cracks, bulges, or tread depth below 2/32 of an inch. Regularly checking tire tread and replacing tires when they are worn out is essential for safe driving.

Why do you need tread on tires?
The "tread" is the part of the tire that is supposed to touch the ground. A tire with no tread would be a tire that is not supposed to touch the ground. You may be wondering why tires have a pattern of grooves (a.k.a., voids) in the tread. They're for bad weather. The grooves allow rain, and (if they're wider) mud and snow to squelch out from under the tire so that the tread can come into contact with something solid on which to get a grip.
What are the signs of bad tires?

Many tires have tread wear indicator bars molded into the tread. When the tread is worn down to where you can see a solid bar of rubber across the width of the tread, it is time to replace the tire.
What is the difference between high gripped tires and less gripped tires?
I assume you are referring to the tread. High grip will have a more aggressive tread design used in off-road conditions or in deep snow. They are called off-road tires or snow tires. The difference is in the tread design.
Is it ok to use two same sized snow tires with equal amounts of tread but different tread patterns on the front of a car?
While it is good to use tires with the same tread and sizes, it is possible to use tires with different tread patterns, though you should be careful as the performance of the two tires may be different, causing your car to be unbalanced, endangering your passengers.
