Winter tire tread depth what is this measurement?

[dmose]

greetings,

I'm going to go look at some used LM-22 Blizzak's tommorrow and was wondering, what is this measurement for tread depth bridgestone states on their page

If you look at the 225/45/17 's ...you see tread depth is 11 ..11 what? is that MM? I want to know so I can measure these used tires

What is the 32" measurement listed under the Tread Depth Header there for?

Tread depth is typically expressed as 32nds of an inch, i.e., 11/32".

what kind of wear should i expect for a set of LM-22's used for '3' months...maybe 5000miles?
