Buyer Beware

Couldn’t get this one embedded with out some hacking, and i didn’t feel like doing that. So just go to the link and watch it, it could save you thousands and even your life. I’m going home and checking the tires I just bought right after work.

It’s an ABC special about the number codes on tires, and how they tell you when the tire was made. Some retailers including Sears and Walmart are selling 7+ year old tires as new. What’s the problem with that? Studies show that the rubber on tires begins to break down after 6 years. Watch it, check em, and be safe! Thanks for this one Grandpa.
