looks like you have a few miles left on the tires. there should be a tread ware bar that goes across the width of a tire that shows the safe ware of the tire (indicated by an arrow on the sidewall). the tire is structurally sound in dry weather till the cord starts to show, wet traction starts to become effected when tread starts to dissapear.

Really hard to tell from your pictures, but if you can see the top of Lincoln's head, then its down to 2/32" which is the legal limit. Even at 4/32", you're stopping distance is reduced quite a bit in the wet and the car can hydroplane easier. I like to replace around 4/32 for a street driven car.
From the specs, Azenis RT-615 start out at 8/32" tread depth. For autox & motorsport applications, some folks will shave tires down to 4/32 to reduce tread squirm.
That being said, they look like they're at right depth for autocrossing Just be really careful if it's wet.
