Tires that are weather checked (cracked) vs. cut/punctured, are usually fine. Tires are made with an inner section that has the reinforced cords. Then the tread is applied. as long as the inner cords are solid and intact, they are fine.
As a couple of posters have already said, if they are not bulging (indication that the inner cords are cut or broken) then they are fine.
Now, if these are really old tires, and I mean from the 30's or the 40's, the tread can start to separate from the inner section. I have a F-20 that I am going to have to break down and buy tires soon. The outer tread rubber is starting to break off from dry rot. They hold air just fine, and run fine, but the exposed inner tire is going to be prone to puncture at some point.
