Cheapest avon chrome 330 tire I could find

Second Chance Customs
What would be considered to old of a tire to use? 5yr? 10yr? I’m thinking I probably wouldn’t even mount one over 5 years old. But I don’t really know how long they last say in a/c storage like I keep my spares.
Anything over 5 years old I probably wouldn't mount...I know I wouldn't mount one on the front over 5 years old

Mick, here is some info from https://www.mickeythompsontires.com/tech-bulletins/understanding-the-service-life-of-your-m-t-tires
  • Race Tires – 4 years.
  • Bias Truck Tires – 8 years
  • Radial Light Truck Tires – 10 years
  • Passenger Tires – 10 years
Under no circumstances should these recommendations be consider as an “expected” service life. Most tires will need to be replaced before these time limits are met due to service conditions.

I did not find a lot of info about motorcycle tires however I think Knot has it right about not mounting any tires 5 years past the born on date.
I would like a no more than 2 years!
