Question tire inspection

Does anyone know how hard they (inspection shops) are on the amount of tread on your tires when your getting an inspection done? I just got my truck back up and running and the tread is borderline on two tires. They still have enough tread to last awhile, but it looks like there gettin a little low. Did the penny thing and ol' abes head is barely covered. Please help! Going tomarrow to get it inspected!!
Thanks.
Ya boy, Tek

Inspections? What's that?

We ain't got inspections in Gawga, but I suppose it'd depend on how the inspector is feeling that day. Generally speaking, 2-3/32" isn't good.

there are "wear bars" built into each tire...they go crosswise with the tread...when the tires wear to these "bars" you will know the tires are on their last miles...zap!
