Had 2 tire blow-out in my folks motorhome about 8 years ago, going across Idaho in the summer. The tires weren't that old and had lot's of tread. I learned then not to trust tires that have been sitting out doors, on a vehicle that doesn't get driven much. If you have a vehicle you don't drive much, keep the tires out of the sun. Cover them up, or keep the vehicle in a garage. Even then after so many years tires can become unsusable.
