Those tires are over 5 years old. Good for concours only. Or a swing. Or a Viagra commercial.

Michelin states up to 10 years are ok. These were on a garage queen, so no cracking or dry rot.

Thanks for $hitting on my thread, this is what I'm going by-

http://www.michelinman.com/US/en/hel...new-tires.html

Porsche didn't make the tires, Michelin did.

Porsche says 6, not 5 years.

This is a discussion forum. Your classified is untouched. Your tires are unsafe. Get over yourself.

Wow, sure- I'm over myself. Fully.

Since we are discussing, take a look at this link from Porsche then continue to discuss-

Your tires were 5 years old in March. It is now almost October. They will make a great swing for your grandkids.

If that is what a perspective buyer would like to use them for, fine with me.

For others who are OK with 5.5 year old tires, on road use might be acceptable.
