Google "tire lifetime" and see why you should have replaced them
years ago! 10 yr old tires are unsafe!

REGARDING C (6-PLY) VS XL (4-PLY)?LOAD RATING FOR 225/60R16 TIRES
FOR 2002 EUROVAN MV WEEKENDER: I have been advised by a local VW
specialty shop that C rating is more important than XL rating even
it if means a tire that is not rated 102H. My last set of tires
were Nokian 102H XL, and even though they still have deep tread
they have developed such severe cracks that one of them went flat
and is unrepairable(!) after just 10yrs and 30K miles of
summer-only driving.
I cannot find a tire rated both 102H and C-load, or I would get
that. Can anyone please share their experience and recommendations
on the subject?
