Miles and tread wear are not the only reasons you need to change tires. Time can also cause dry rot in 5-6 years. If you don't drive much, your tires could still be worn out. This video shows what to watch for and some of the signs or dry rot including cracking along the circumference of the tires, increased road noise, and failure to hold tire pressure.

The problem tires shown in this video were not Cooper tires (I have had many Cooper tires over the years and have had great luck with them). The tires with dry rot were Yokohama Geo lander tires.

Interesting video. I had a set of Cooper's on my truck, which I use for my job. They were rated for 60K miles, I ended up having them for over a year and a half of near-daily use. Ended up getting 107K out of them, which is pretty wild, I couldn't believe it. Regular rotation and balancing can really stretch a set out quite a ways, that's the only guess I have as to why mine lasted so long. I definitely got my money's worth.

Good advice! Belts and hoses seem to have come a long way with durability but tires are hit and miss. Perhaps UV rays, winter road salt or other chemicals found on the roadways make the difference.

I would be interested in the Tire Identification Number (TIN) stamped on the tire. It is after the 'DOT' symbol. Cooper has an article on their web site.
