I watched an episode of Donut Media and they where talking about how old your tires, where to check are and how often you should change them.
So not ever thinking about this...
I headed out the the garage yesterday and checked my tires birthday. Mine were manufactured in Jan of 2012. That just over 8 years old. According to the episode, they recommend tires should not be older than 6 years old. I have about half the tread life let but I guess I should look into getting a new set.
How many of you think this is important and you should actually look at your tires age as a regular part of your maintenance plan?
