10 years is pushing it.
6 years is typically about as much useful life you can reliably get from a tire, even if if's brand new unused old stock.
The rubber gets brittle over time whether or not it is used. That can mean two things: It looses its grip and/or becomes easily damaged. Either way, it's not worth getting into an accident over a tire's age.

yep i know 10yrs is pushing it. but if car is mostly in covered garage away from sunlight and there's absolutely no damage or cracking (even just micro-cracking), up to 10yrs should be ok. that's michelin's recommendation anyway

My car is turning 4 in January and it has 25K in the odometer. I'm not sure if I should replace the tires. Makapal pa e

December 15th, 2017 04:15 PM #47If these are good quality tires, you can normally push longer lalo kung mostly city driving ka lang. I won't go above 10 years for a tire though (although malabo umabot ng 10 years yung tire without it wearing out first assuming you use the car regularly)

I use the tread wear indicator (yung nsa pagitan ng tread) as my guide, or 6 years, whichever comes first. Pero kung may crack or bulge na, automatic palit na agad.
Mahirap na mabiktima ng hydroplaning... magkano lang ba ang presyo ng gulong kumpara sa habambuhay mo pagsisihan na tinipid mo yung kaisa-isang (normally apat) bahagi ng sasakyan mo na nakalapat sa lupa.

I've worked with many different nationalities and they have far more typos and mispronunciations during casual conversations than we do. The difference is that other nationalities don't have people like you who call out every single error. Noticed that you're so keen on bashing Filipino culture - was wondering if you aren't Filipino. If you are, then perhaps you can share how all other Filipinos beneath you can be as cultured as you are. [emoji4]
