old tires vs new tires

[Pulnaway]

There is no valid point for driving a car with OLD tires. If you can afford one of these cars you can afford safe tires.

[Supergas990]

There is no requirement in a standard auto policy that requires a vehicle have current tires or be in a certain condition.

If the underwriter states that the tires on the car must be in a certain condition as a condition of issuing the policy that would be different. Otherwise, you can run whatever tires you're comfortable with and won't have problems with coverage.

For my cars, I prefer newer radials or repop tires. Too much blood, sweat and tears in my "babies" to chance it on old rubber.
