Message	I have 355/25/19 tires in the rear. This size is no longer in production. Normal rule is that you should not drive on tires older than 6 years. I found a new set of tires that are dated 2003. If stored correctly can these still be safe ? These are $ 200 each. I can find a set that are new dated 2010 but they are $ 1000.00 each.
