A friend of mine has the following he is going to sell me for $50. Dunlop D208 180/55/17 120/70/17 My question is are they too old or a good deal?? They are off of an '03 that was purchased in November of '04. They have less than 1000 miles on them. | ||

I was just wondering how old is too 'old'? My friend said they harden and aren't any good after a certain period of time, which I understand. But what is that period of time? a year, 2 years-3 ??? | ||

Snatch em up. Too old???? Ridiculous. There are still 02's in the showroom with stock rubber & its fine. So long as they arent exposed to the elements where sunlight & ozone can attack them, they will be fine. | ||

I'm not sure but I'd look at them and see if they are still soft and flexible. Rubber that gets old looses its flexibility and will harden up. This is something you can feel. I *think* it takes a few years. | ||

I thought it would have to take a considerable period of time to harden up. I just wanted to make sure, fifty bucks is fifty bucks. |
