Generally, how long do tyres last? Not talking about wear - the rubber in general. How long can they stay on a car before they should be replaced?

    I think it's also dependant on how it's stored. If it's in rain etc then not as long as in a dry garage. Also if it's got any weight on it while flat.

    Manufacturers recommend 6 years. I'd say longer if it's been kept in a warm, dark room
