Tires were made in 2010...do I buy new?
Hello. I have a 1996 Monaco Dynasty and the DOT on the front Michelin tires reads DOT M53T C83X 2810. For safety reasons only.....do I change the tires? Thank you in advance for your responses.

Because they were uncovered I would say it is Time to get new ones.
That said if finances are a problem you may be able to get by this year by buying 2 new tires for the front and using the old on the rear dual tires. This way if you have a blowout on a tire you will not lose control as you would if a front tire blew. Under the right conditions a rear blowout can cost thousands in damage ( I have the bills to prove it).
Then next year bite for 4 new tires.
Only you know your own finances.
Make sure to specify you want fairly recent DOT dates from wherever you get the tires. LOOK at the dates yourself.
