Leo72 6th Gear September 27, 2014 Share September 27, 2014 Hi bros, I was offered good price for 2012 made kumho tyres. Is it still considered ok and safe for 2012? Not too old? The tyres is more than 2 years old. Unless you're changing your tyres every year, its not advisable. For me, any tyres older than 6 months are out of consideration because I change tyres every 4 years since my mileage is not high enough to wear out the tyres within 2 years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too old? depends on the load of your car, if it's MPV and often carry family travel around, don't take it, if it's daily sedan and most time driving by you alone to work, go ahead, use 2 more years no problem.

xherion 2nd Gear September 27, 2014 Author Share September 27, 2014 2012 Tyres are safe to use for another 2-3years. No problem. What size are you looking for? Maybe I can present you with a better deal I was looking at 225/50/18 or 245/45/18. Thanks for the inputs guys. Yea this is for sedan which i will use mostly for going back and forth to work, only weekends are for family. With the mile usage i am going for, probably i need to change every 2-3 years, so i guess 2 years old tyres are still ok, total still below 6 years after use. Which week of 2012? 0212 and 5112 very big difference leh. Haha i didn't ask till that detail bro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic September 28, 2014 Share September 28, 2014 Rubber hardens with age and become less effective. I wouldn't buy 2 year old condos let alone 2 year old tyres. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
