I am a firm believer in notifying customers of the tire dates on all vehicle inspections we do, and make it a part of EVERY oil and filter service as well. We just had a motorhome in last month with 28 year old tires. When I told the owner she needed (6) tires, she asked if she could just make it to Florida as she was going to park it in a park and not drive it from then on. I told her I would not drive it to Florida Lane in town here. Her response was " But the tread looks like they have a lot of life left in them"
People. Bill

Awhile back I removed a set of BF Goodrich Radial TA’s from a set of 69 XT wheels because one started a bulge out place on the sidewall. They were old but perfect thread. The tread is what most people pay attention to not the condition of the sidewalls.
