New tires? Or not?

Good advertisment for SUVs Were there any other type of wrecks?

In our country are very popular used tires from Germany etc. They are even worse And most incredible fact, that owners of very fast cars (used M5, M3 etc) use them (new large diameter tires are expensive)

Oh, nothing to worry about: I had tires under my car from 1983.
So 2001 is nothing to worry about!

Seriously: if I would have known that beforehand I wouldn't have driven that long with these tires... As stated in the video: the marks were on the inside of the wheels and I only read about the production dates two months before I replaced my tires.

hmm makes me wonder about my tires.

(probably) Old Falken's ... which look kinda dry on the outside, but feel solid otherwise. Hrmzzzzzzz

old falkens are pretty sh*t
i hade some on my previous car (200SX) only one raindrop let them slide
good for drifting but not for street use

personally i don't save on tires, because they are the only contact to the street
