[QUOTE="ichiwan2, post: 39336, member: 153"] You should also look at the age of the tyres. It should not be more than 5 years old, that is from date of manufacture and not from when you bought the tyres. Some will even tell you to get rid of the tyres after three years.A 3 or 4 digit marking on the sidewall of the tyres will tell you when the tyres were manufactured. The first two digits indicate the week of manufacture and the remaining digits, the year. So 3204 means 32nd week of 2004. (Correct me if I am wrong)Can't remember the code for the three digit manufacturing date.Other things you should look at are whether the tyre edges have worn out. Wear on the edges could be due to camber or alignment issues. Or it could be that you like driving too fast going into corners. [/QUOTE]
