Best advice I've read in a while. :^D Currently, I have ten-year-old Yokohama
AVSi's (205/60-13) with only about 5000 miles on them and, while the car is
garage-kept and probably thus less UV damage, I wonder at what point they have
to go. TireRack only lists "extreme tires", those with very high grip and
accordingly low tread life, but maybe that's not really such a bad thing.
