      Is it affecting your riding? If not, then send it. If you are breaking loose a lot, get some new ones.

      Depends on riding style, but cornering will be reduced with such degraded side knobs.

      Trails are starting to get dusty but as the other guy said if you don’t notice it ride as is but you might start to notice the rear sliding about this could also cause ur braking power to reduce so just watch out basically

      This is replace level for me. I like a loose ride but not unpredictable and if you’re spinning on climbs then it’s definitely time.

      Pretty much as soon as I see the sipes go and corners rounding on the braking edge it’s time for new tires. Add into you have some chunks out of your side knobs and you might be a little past due for a replacement.

      Depends how good you are, average riders won’t notice, if you’re ripping corners and biting side knobs I’d replace if not, you’re still plenty good.

      I would probably get another one to have on hand and then ride it for another couple weeks

      I’d have felt less hookup way before it looked like that. I’d highly suggest replacing but I’ll be downvoted for saying that.

      They‘ll be good for another 20 years

      Also: change your tires instead of reposting these pictures once a week.

      I’d keep riding that…. Plenty of life left in it.

      Stick it on the rear and get drifty when the knobs start ripping off.
