Hi,
Edevlin - Ditch the used tires!
Tires are only safe for about 4 years regardless of treadwear. This is because their compounds harden, they lose grip exponentially and lose their ability to shed Heat - the #1 Enemy of High Performance Tires.
Also, your tires start to Dry Rot the minute they leave the factory. This process is slow, but steady and will accelerate once the Tires are unmounted.
By the time you'd think of reusing them, they'd be unsafe, would last under 2k mi. (wear will accelerate once they've been set aside and harden), would probably leak against the aluminum rim, be awful in the wet, noisy, etc.
Remember, Tires are much cheaper than Sheet Metal Repair (your's and the other guy's) and People Repair. Like I said earlier - you gotta Pay to Play...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
