I know this topic has been beaten to death but....
My low mileage '74 2.0L has tires that are over 10 years old with under 2K miles. Should I replace these because they are older and possibly unsafe? The current tires are 165R15....if I replace them I'm thinking of going with the Vredestein Sprint Classic in 165/HR15. Thoughts.... Attached thumbnail(s)
