Age of tires on your tow vehicle/ When to replace?
What's the general consensus (age wise) to replace tires on tow vehicles?
Forum Discussion
No general consensus. It's dependent on many factors.
However, if it's not fracked from dry rot I wouldn't be afraid to run them on a Tow vehicle with low tongue weight. Can't say the same of it was heavy 5ver pin weight or TC.
Also how close to load rating on the tires is the actual load?
I've seen tires that were 3 years old that I wouldn't trust to cross the street all cracked.
I have a set on my old jeep that are probably at least 20 years old and look like new.
