^^^^^ this is true you must watch the date of manufacture on the tires. I once got 2 that were already 7 years old.

Me: Wow Really?
FordNut, I used a brand new 2007 condom now I have a kid. 😂😂😂
"Brand new"

Never, ever on the Marauder or any other car that I have owned. Tires and brakes are two areas where I am not willing to cut corners. As a teenager in the 1960s, we used to sell Recaps/Retreads in popular sizes at Western Auto for about 50% of the cost of a new set of tires. Don't see recaps much anymore except maybe on truck tires. Really scary behind an 18-wheeler when one of those recap treads decides to separate. I always went for the best tire that I could afford .... Always !!
I remember one time in the early 1970s that I had to make a decision between getting new tires or making a car payment because money was a tad short at the time. I got the tires and decided to take my chances with the finance company. I still think it was the right decision.

Junkyards and Craig's list are your friends. Just get the right size and be sure they aren't too old.

Never cheap out on your tires, brakes, tools, and shoes. Reason should be self evident.
