No miles and stored indoors. I'm gonna remove & inspect each one very closely.
As SSJ71 said, it doesn't matter how close you inspect them. I was actually telling the truth about my shoes, but I've also had a set of 10+ year old tires that looked almost perfect and they developed a bubble in them while driving. No dry rot, no cracking, nothing. It sucks because they "MIGHT" be ok this trip. Or the next one. Kind of a Russian roulette. So unless you are just cruising around town at low speeds, I don't think you should risk it, no matter how tempting it is.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
