Good day Dawgs,

When is it the right time to change the rear tyre?
Of course it when the tyre is worn out but for a newbie it’s kind of hard to tell.
My tyre’s centre is slightly becoming treadless while towards the edges the tread is still very good.  I almost fell this past weekend after riding over water and the bike started sliding but I managed to tame the beast.

If it’s time to change,  where can I find the best price and should I stick to Michelin Anakees?
I mostly commute daily and will do off-road in the near future but not hectically?

Please advise.
