good thread on the tires - they will show up soon as perfect tires!
R.I.P. - side impact like this at the driver side breaks any neck :crazy2:
After such a crash NOTHING around the suspension is good on that car, but :eater:

The title is misleading. :rolleyes: It's not the cream-puff going "pop" - it's your "pushing the limits" that went down the gutter.
The Viper engines are terrible reliable - under normal operation - plenty of +100.000 miles cars out there :drive:
I felt like 101 when I bought my first GTS ten years ago...every other year of owning and driving the Viper(s) made me 10 years younger - so, I am 1 right now!
>>>ne would have to assume they were stored correctly<<<
That's the key - if you trust them - o.k. - I wont because 3 years is a very very long time and who knows where the tires have been stored for such a long time. Not at the high price of the tires!
>>>This is similar to the way they stock the milk in the supermarket.<<<
That's exactly what I was thinking reading the previous posts - just with Joghurt! :D
It does not make sense to sell tires by random, but every excuse will be used if handy :lmao:
>>> There is no hidden agenda to sneak older rubber out first.<<<
:dunno:
Tire vendors should sell the oldest (hopefully not too old) tires first - otherwise the oldest tires get even older in the warehouse...:lmao:
>>>That said, DOT CODES are not on most European Market tires.<<<
not true :rolleyes:
And, this is from another tire seller :rolleyes:

I saw 5.5 year old "new" tires (run flats, by the way) on a SRT10 Viper - sold by the (s)dealership who crashed my RT/10 and telling everybody (when I recognized it and pointed it out to the owner of the Viper) that the tires have been stored well and are LIKE NEW...:crazy2:
P.S.: tire dealers...
that car was also for 45k on e-bay and has very old (but perfect, according to the seller :rolleyes:) tires too

>>>Finally: If you truly profess to want to prolong your tire life, fill them with Nitrogen. Less oxidation from the inside. Other benefits, too.<<<
That's a fairy tale - check how much nitrogen is in the "air" and you will understand that the little difference will not make any difference...
