Tires LT 225/75R16 load range E
Looking into replacing current tires, 5.5 yrs old on a E450. Looking at Michlein, Goodyear, Cooper, Continental, Handcock. They will be Out of Date long before tread wear is an issue. Comment...

Ron,
While we agree on most things your continued use of 11+ year-old tires gives me the willies... I know you know better. Your operating load and storage conditions in no way mitigate the fact that tires time out. I hope I am wrong but IMHO: yours are a disaster just waiting to happen.
Given the critical interface between your rig and the road which = "tires' I cannot imagine pushing the envelope much less to such an extreme. I wish you luck but obviously you have already had your share...
But enough thread drift, go buy a new set of Michelins! :S
As always... Opinions and YMMV.
:B
