Do proper burnouts and donuts before discarding the old tires.

[@vuaeco]

Your clutch or transmission might go before the tires. :D

[@blipco5]

Spillow ...Good advice. You are a wise man indeed.

[@Cougarsamurai]

I never get 'tired' of Cooley :)

He’s from Glendale az and said it’s not that extreme 😂

freddy meza snow = extreme 😭

Just because you bought the car New in 2014 doesn’t mean the tires were made and put onto the car in 2014. They were probably sitting in a warehouse for a few months in 2012 before going to the manufacture who made the car in 2013

[@omaralmaghrabi]

Ruben even years. I think 2 years storage is considered new

[@anakinandy]

The weather isn’t extreme enough “GLENDALE AZ” 😂😂😂

[@KJ-iq7fm]

How about spare tires, when to replace? Don't hear too much about people replacing those. Mine is almost 20 years old, in the trunk.

[@RobertLeBlancPhoto]

KJ Every tire, including spares, have a manufacture date code, such as 1715. This would be the 17th week of 2015. It's recommended that even if a tire shows all signs of being ok, you should still replace them once 6 years after the manufacture date.

[@AnalogueKid2112]

I would say 10 years on a spare that is inside the car and protected from sun and dirt. But I don’t know of a specific recommendation from an OEM about it.

[@fatbowe]

They are over..🙈😅💀

[@karlosbricks2413]

same with me, my 1999 5 series has a spare tyre from 1998, The tyre place said as a spare it's fine, and just treat it like having a space saver as the grip levels will be similar, and get your normal tyres back on as quickly as possible

[@mail4sannu]

Thanks to Cooley, I learnt something new and important about my car!

[@alfredotan6136]

I understand that rubber has oils that get tend to spread around when you flex it. Not sure if this applies to tires. It could be the reason why sneakers that are left in the shelf have soles that break apart while sneakers of the same age that you constantly use tend to have pliable, albeit worn, soles.

[@Algimantas-eg7gu]

very helpful

[@ibrahimqari9189]

In the Middle East the max tire age is 4 years after that it starts to Dry rot like crazy.

[@frisco-2.0]

I'm so glad living in middle europe germany! Tires last here up to 10 years before they harden or crack. Thx to the mild weather! ;)

[@JeepCherokeeful]

The worst is when someone is selling an older collector vehicle, maybe 30 years old, and the tires are only the second set, let’s say they’re 20 years old. But the asking price might be $20k. I’m gonna offer $400-700 less so I can put on a fresh set immediately. Not to mention a full “tune up”. Anyway, 7 years old is the industry standard for replacement, regardless of mileage. The tire carcass is compromised by then.

[@Frankbarrera714]

How cool you drive a crown vic!!

[@skyforce95]

Anybody know of any good tire spray product to help coat tires and reduce UV damage?

[@Andrew-zv4fm]

Only Cooley can make a Ford Crown Vic look cool.

[@peppeddu]

Good to know, now I'm gonna check the manufacturing date of every car I can get my hands on.

[@XLLR8ing2]

Mother nature is undefeated against anything man made. Have those tires checked out. Safety first.

Hey Brian, I recently bought a 2004 Jaguar X-type with only 38,000 miles on the clock. Jaguar states that the transmission fluid does not need to be changed at all. My concern is that although it is a low mileage car, does the transmission fluid need to be replaced after 15 years? That goes to the accessory belt and other parts of the car that "mileage wise" need no change yet (according to the service book), but "time wise" should they be changed after 15 years regardless of the mileage?

[@syedhashimraza4521]

It absolutely needs to be changed. No ands ifs or buts about it. It degrades over time.

[@Terror1Void]

Change it. No such thing as lifetime fluid.

[@nabilm2941]

Thanks for both of your replies. I will probably do that tomorrow. :)

[@karlosbricks2413]

XD, the spare tire in my 1999 5 series has a tire code indicating it's from 1998 with it's old 3 number code

[@topjimmy1984vh]

What is the email address to submit questions??

[@ralanham76]

[@hectorguajardo6392]

I just bought a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban the truck has 94,000 miles but I checked the tread and they were cracking so the truck has been parked for some time I replaced them with the new Goodyear Wrangler Ultra Terrain AT the truck now looks good

[@East17A]

Why I start to feel I hate owning a car!! It's not fun anymore. It's beginning to be annoying thing to own

[@marco1173]

That's why I gave up on owning. Now I only lease.

[@solentbum]

If you haven't worn the tyre out in 10 years is it worth the expense of keeping the car? AND you don't wait until it's Bald, virtually every car manufacturer recommends changing at 3 mm.

[@mikeprice8307]

If you're collecting it yes.

[@thevampirecielphantomhive2342]

Just because the tire salesman isn't lying doesn't mean he's not being totally honest with you

[@11O100]

Hmmm, my tires are 12 years old. I may need new ones

[@ahleh9049]

I hear never use a tyres more then 5 years old from the manufacturing date... Even though it still have tyre threats left....

[@mrslcom]

Replace any tire that’s 10 years old regardless of tread life remaining.

[@RobertLeBlancPhoto]

Tanah Merah According to vehicle and tire manufacturers, that's 6 years.

[@mrslcom]

Rob L. Correct but a bit conservative.

[@bassam_salim]

Mines were made in 2013 they has a lot of cracks but I barely drive that car (1000 miles a year)

[@mikeprice8307]

[@stoundingresults]

Don't be cheap on tires, it's more expensive to get towed if you get a blow out and cause an accident. Years ago I saw a mini truck of some handyman blow out a rear tire on a truck and swerve 3 lanes to the center divider taking out a motorcycle.

[@NasaRacer]

Bring your pocket knife and make sure you cut some gashes in the sidewall before you let them dispose of the old tires that still have good tread or they will sell them to someone else as used tires.

[@Mr6Sinner]

Chris Teasdale I asked for mine back so I can use them when I want to go drifting lol

[@JDMHaze]

Good TREAD, I'm keeping the tires,. I'm surprise he didn't mention maintaining proper tire pressure Because a lot of people don't check that Which plays a big part in tire wear

[@kevinheckeler]

They were focusing on tire rot. I believe they have another recent video regarding tire wear, etc.

[@JDMHaze]

Kevin Heckeler they do i think...

[@RobertLeBlancPhoto]

As explained in the video, tires expire with age, regardless of tread wear.

[@JDMHaze]

Rob L. i know,, but im sayin i aint replacing no tires with good tread lol

[@kevinheckeler]

@@JDMHaze I probably wouldn't either, unless the entire tire was crackled. That would take much longer than my tires ever last (usually drive 20,000 miles/year).

[@coalieroller5663]

guess what, most people will still doesnt really care and ignore your message. And keep on driving with those old rotten tires and having a crash, then blaming someone why the tire has failed

[@zypie1]

And he still driving his old crown vic.

[@DoctorSkillz]

We know Cooley isn't going to swap out tires anytime soon.

[@pikapool8003]

Go Walmart they sell Made in USA tires cheap compare other retailers including Amazon 🤣😂 I check everything

[@inverseuniverse5727]

The Douglas tires are made by Goodyear . But if course , not same quality.
