The present disclosure provides a driving companion tread-life indicator system and methods of operation thereof. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving data associated with one or more tread depth measurements. The one or more tread depth measurements were made by a measurement device external to a vehicle. The one or more tread depth measurements are descriptive of a tread depth of at least one tread of at least one tire of the vehicle. The method includes associating a respective time value with each of the one or more tread depth measurements. The method includes accessing a model that correlates the one or more tread depth measurements to a projected tread depth. The method includes determining an estimated time at which the projected tread depth is expected to equal or pass a tread depth threshold based at least in part on the model. The method includes providing the estimated time to a notification system.
