Default Re: Risk of using old (over 10 years) tires

R.I.P. that car.
And I'm just here replacing my 65 year old hard as rock crossplys because the tread was low.
They'd been looked after, but if they hit a big enough pothole i suspect the cords would've broken. They were getting pretty past their best before date.
