Your Tires May Be A
Ticking Time Bomb

This serious tire problem is under-re****ted, and is probably the most
serious threat to your life and millions worldwide. Even if you are mainly
a city driver who only makes short trips can still affect you. Many
vehicles have tires which are several years old. It makes no difference
whether it's a car, truck, SUV or any other vehicle. We've put this life-
saving information together based on stills from a recent ABC news video
for people who cannot play streaming video.
The threat to all of us is tire AGING. Recently it has been disovered that
tires older than 6 years, whether still on a vehicle or just bought in a
store and installed on a vehicle, can easily self-destruct at highway
speeds. You will not see the failure coming as this is taking place inside
the tire. It is a myth that tires are not defective until cracks in the
rubber appear. Tread can separate from the tire causing catastrophic
failure. Tires dry out, and with today's rubber there may not be any
visible signs a failure is happening until a fatal accident occurs.
Even worse, ABC news re****ters found that Sears, Walmart and other well
known stores frequently have OLD tires on the shelves being sold as new.
It's still currently legal to sell these tires because there are no
expiration dates established by any government, whether it be the United
States or the UK. But as you'll soon discover, tires SHOULD have
expiration
dates.
