WEAR BARS
#1
Does anyone have any photos of their tires with the wear bars showing? I've got nearly 15K miles on my tires and haven't seen anything yet except thinning tread. Please post if you have any.

there are little rubber bars that are in the tread grooves that run sideways across the tire ( from sidewall to sidewall). when your tires are low, the bars will be even with the tread pattern. until then they're recessed from the tread inside the grooves. i'd take a pic of mine but my camera is still offline.

Josh3iO is incorrect. Most tires have a perpendicular wear bar pattern. Not the Potenza S02. The Potenza wear bar is groove by groove, with the bar being perpendicular to the groove not the tire. The bar is also offset from groove to groove (meaning a single bar does not cross all grooves of the tire, even when warn down). If your looking for a traditional "wear bar" there is none. Look at the individual grooves.........
