You do realize tires have expire date. Once past that, they are prone to rupture. Hence dangerous.

What I did was, I always rotate all my 5 tires so when it's time to change, all 5 tires would have reach even worn state. So nothing go to waste.

If I do not rotate the spare tires, after several years I will have to throw it away even though it's unused.


I prefers to use my head than follow the crowd. After all, it is my money and not theirs.

aware of these, but never heard the expired date just manufacturing date and the warranty period .. ha ha and I do rotate my tyres.

Actually one of my tyre blown due to harsh cornering on my trip to Fraser Hill last weekend. it almost 5 years from manufacturing date but since low milage on it .. it still left about 60% which probably by the end of the year i should have a new set but mean while I just need 1 or most 2 to use as spare.
