Chances are the sidewalls are cracked to all hell! Even if a tyre isn't worn
out, it deteriorates with age. Old tyres are often found on imported
secondhand bikes, at least one guy I know has crashed because he couldn't
wait to change the crappy, hardened with age tyre before riding his newly
purchased bike.
