when are tires too old to use again? i have a set of
michelin diaimaris tires that i put away with around 30k miles and was thinking of putting them back on after being put away for about 4 years. there are still inflated on these other rims but i want to install them on my current rims that i ride on now. is this safe to do?

why not have a tire shop inspect them when you are having them mounted
