                Tires are one of those safety items that should always =
be checked before a trip.   A few years ago I was going to take a trip =
to a Sunbeam event but when I checked the tires, one of them had a split =
in the tread all the way around =E2=80=93 no trip on those tires.   =
Safety first.

=20

                Tire manufactures, I believe, state replace every 5 =
years but then they want to make money.   Small check and cracks in the =
side wall I believe should be OK but cracks or splits in the tread area =
is a bad sign.   You have to use your best judgement at all time in this =
area.

=20

                I one set of All Season Tire that should never have =
gotten that designation.   I know for certain that when the temperature =
drops below 45 degrees F and its wet they will slide and lose traction; =
they are summer tires only.=20

It was a dumb question when I knew the answer was never to take the =
chance on tires that old.  It does cause me pain to see tires with only =
200 miles of wear go to the recycler especially when their size =
replacements are no longer available.  But that beats doing fender =
damage from a blowout.
