Tires: tyre life, tyre life, time span
QuestionI bought my car in 1998 it was ex factory I used it lightly for 43000 km . the tires look in very good condition when I inspect them they are not worn and there are no cracks or bulges &when washed they look brand new. I heard that tires have a limited life even if they were used sparingly .Please tell me if I have to change my tires after 43000 km and not a single tire was punctured during that time
AnswerSami,
The current thinking is that there is a limited time span of usefulness to the rubber in tires regardless of whether the tire was used or not. The limits have been expressed between 6 and 10 years.
So based on your information, I would say it is time for you to replace your tires.
