I have a 80 Ford 350 that I pull a 18 ft trailer for my mowing tractor. I have a front tire with a very slow leak. I forgot to air it up when I left this morning so I pulled into a tire store for some air. The salesman comes out I told him I only needed some air. He gets down, and gives my tire a real close inspectin. He notices some weather checking. Then he finds the date which is 1992. He said he can't fill my tire, it might explode. I left with my low tire. So my tire is about 16 years old. How long can a tire still be safe to drive on. I have never gone by any tire date, only tire condition. Any thoughts. stan
