Air leakage — Tires with worn tread are much more likely to leak air and lose air pressure. This can affect steering, braking and fuel economy.
Puncture — A thick tire tread protects the tire casing from puncture. If the tread is worn, it's easier for a piece of glass or metal to puncture the tire. If the puncture causes a sudden blowout, you lose control of the steering, which can cause an accident.
Heat Build-Up — As the tire wears down, there is less space for air to flow between the grooves of the tread to cool the tires. The tire heats up. Heat is an enemy of tire rubber and a major cause of failure
Standard all-season car tires for everyday driving can cost $50-$200 each but average about $80-$150, depending on size and warranty. These tires are typically for 14"-18"-diameter wheels and have treadwear warranties between 40,000 and 100,000 miles for two to five years, whichever comes first (the tire will be replaced if the tread wears out early). For example, the Hankook Optimo H727[2] with a 100,000-mile or five-year warranty costs about $65-$85 for a 14" wheel and $140-$170 for 18". CostHelper readers report paying $50-$290 per tire for car tires (in sets of two or four), at an average cost of $139 per tire, installed.
