In the past I have used tires until the threads or cords showed and never had a blow out or flat. My old military trailer had PEP Boys tires that were at least 25 years old and were still being used. I do not understand the 7 year life of tires now being pushed by dealers. Have tires gotten so bad that they have a built in self destruct mechanism? Is this just a gimmick to keep them from being sued by our litigious society? I would like to hear technical and personal opinions.
