check the production date on the tire
will be week & year
max about 5 years (michelin or whatever)
not related to mileage
had to replace all 9 (michelin replaced new spare also) on the motor home
was a prorated adjustment but still over 600 with the labor to mount and balance
had about 20 - 25 % wear
michelin tires have the highest quality control in the industry
but all tires get old and fail
quick check for tire load
inflate when cold - drive 15 to 30 min
check air pressure if hot pressure is over 8% means your cold pressure was to low if you are at the max cold pressure then you will have to get a higher load tire or reduce the load in the vehicle.
not rocket science - all in the owners manuals
