Tires, new 6 year law

Posted by wdtom on April 04, 2005 at 16:47:59 from (155.212.222.189):

I have been hearing rumblings that make me think in the not too distant future they will pass a law saying that any tire over 6 years old is unsafe and must be replaced before you can get your vehicle inspected. I think this is a load of %$#@ and is only for the benefit of tire makers. All the tires on my two vehicles are over 6 years old. Some are probably 12 years old on the van I don't use too much. I have NEVER had a blow out. I keep my tires inflated to pressure, and don't drive crazy fast. I think the blowouts attributed to old tires are from under inflation, or damage from hitting something, curb, pothole, etc. Or both. Do you guys have any experience or opinions on this? What have you heard?
