THIS.
I had a set of Michelin CrossTerrain tires on our Pathfinder with about 50,000 miles on them.
Plenty of tread remaining, perhaps to get us to 80,000 or 90,000 miles.
Problem is they were 7 years old and had cracked sidewalls.
I knew I had to replace them or run the risk of having them blow driving from L.A. to Las Vegas,
or L.A. to Scottsdale, AZ, in the 100-120 degree heat.
Hell, they might have blown at 70 mph, at 75 degree heat!
I bit the bullet and bought a new set of tires because I had gotten 7 years out of them and I did not want to run the risk.
I suggest you do the same.
