Saw this on another forum I go to and thought it would be a good idea to post it here.
Tires that are sold as new. Opinions about this? |

I would have liked to see some test data to prove that 6 years is the limit. When they were talking about the European standards he didn't give an explanation for 6 years being the limit. Where did they come up with 6 years as a standard?
I also wonder about the tires if being out in the sun as compared to being stored inside would make a difference for the life expectancy. |
