Storage: This applies to spare tires and tires that are sitting in a garage or shop. A tire that has not been mounted and is just sitting in a tire shop or your garage will age more slowly than one that has been put into service on a car. But it ages nonetheless.


Maybe new tires should come with a manufacture date embedded in them.

I wonder just how old some of the new tires I have purchased may have been.....
