I bought a set of take-offs essentially for the price of the wheels with no idea of the miles the original owner had put on them).

It's not the problem of used tires. The problem is unknown age & wear pattern. Were they mounted on wheels within proper recommended width? Were they heat cycled often? That's just few of the many problems when you buy used tires. OP didn't state how the tires are worn when they were replaced.
Provided his mechanic with 30 years of service knows what he's doing, I would put my bet on the tires.
