Tire Age

I've got 2012 Kumho's on my '98 Boxster and they still have at least 80% tread left. I know rubber degradation is a real issue, but there's no indication that's occurring, at least outwardly. What's the danger of driving in the city (under 45mph) with these tires? I do plan to replace them, but don't want to chance a failure that might damage the cars body.
