These are a set from a 2015 performance package car. They have been kept in a climate controlled shop, with proper psi and covered. How many years would you trust these tires?

just personal experience so your results may vary but I have a 2015 PP/GT and it has 8000 miles. I was looking at the front tires today, which are original from factory, and they are actually dry rotting in certain spots. the car get used all spring - fall and sat only a few months in a heated garage for winter. there's a good chance those tires are just fine so don't let my experience scare you. also, there are way better tire choices out there so look around unless you're getting a really good deal on them. i hate pirelli's :frusty:

on an unrelated note, where are you located by pittsburgh?

Elizabeth. I bought this spare set over a year ago. My car has 7200 miles on original tires and I will probably make it until winter with them. Between both sets, I'm hoping to make it until 2019 when I get a new car with PP and ten speed.
