1971 Triumph 2000 Mk2, Never failed yet but this year I had an adviser.............. tail pipe may need replacing next year and possibly 2 of the original Michelin ZX tyres.( slight sidewall cracking but still got loads of tread left.) 30,000 only from new still in pristine condition.
I'm sorry but 39 year old tires? ![yikes](/inc/images/yikes.gif)

Yeah that. Rubber desgrades over time, causing it to harden and reduce the amount of grip.
My '89 205 GTI still had the original rear tyres on it when I bought it - those got changed very quickly indeed!!

Of course I've had a couple of advisories too.
