If your tread depth is below about half of new (new is usually 9 or 10/32"...minimum legal is 2/32"), then you should change all the tires. Otherwise your wet performance on the older tires will be impaired compared to the one new tire leading to imbalance in grip and a potentially dangerous situation.
Thx for the info...
