Just throwing in my 2 cents worth.
As you can see my coach is 5 years old along with the tires with 20K miles.
I was going to replace them on the return home from our trip, but when you look at the picture, you will see that I got hammered and had to bite the bullet to replace them. I was in the middle of nowhere in UTAH and felt that if I only replaced the front, it would not be long before I had more tire problems.

Forget my question, on the file photo i saw what looks like the first three letters of the brand name of the tire.

At a tire seminar at the CCFI rally in harrisburg Oregon last week Jon from Les Schwab told us as long as

the tires are stored correctly, even if the tires are over a year old, they don't start to age until they have been installed and put under stress. My new Continentals are 4 months old, the XZ2's were 7 months

old when installed. The Michelins came from a warehouse near Reno, NV. I am going to get some tire

covers when I get home this fall.
