Old Shoes for Baby

All these years I didn't know that auto tires which are older than five years, despite their new appearance, present a serious danger while driving. I shudder to think how many times I might've endangered my family by driving with "new" tires which were five to ten years old. Recently I finally retired Smokey, my '75 Delta 88 Oldsmobile. Like me, she just couldn't go anymore. I have her up on blocks in my backyard. I felt sorry for her, and wanted to reward her for all the transportation she did for me. I bought and mounted four ten-year-old tires on her.
