Re: Risk of using old (over 10 years) tires
Shu47, when a tire blows out on the open road and burns up, I don't know how you would determine what caused it. What he said was that he was driving along on a smooth road and it let go. All he would admit to was it was over 10 years old and maybe closer to 20. Was running 32 lbs in each tire.
Another friend of mine recently had the RR tire on his 33 3w have half the tread separate from the casing (stayed attached at one end) and it beat the s**t out of his rear fender. This tire was 18 years old.
He ordered a new set from Diamondback.
