Time for new tires?
My 2014 Nissan Titan 4WD is still running on the Goodyear Wranglers original tires. P265-70-R18. Date on them is 3613...so that makes them almost 6.5 years old. About 25,000 miles on them. Yes, 25,...

Yes, 25,000 miles! Tread is worn about as one would expect. I don't really see an dry rot cracks on the sidewalls but am concerned about the age. My TT is a Jayco X17C hybrid so the amount of weight I'm towing is rather light. I'm a weekend type camper and usually stay within 100 miles of home.
Is it time for new tires? Or do I ride 'em for another 6 months to 1 year?
First car?
First time a set of tires has lasted this long?
Typically OE tires are not good for much except bumpers on boat docks and tire swings, so I'd ditch them, about 5 years ago and opt for a stronger, better performing, longer lasting, better traction tire.
But if I only drove the vehicle 4000 miles a year and not in snow, off road, loaded heavy, etc, I'd not worry about putting around on the OE tires.
