Sidewalls have slight signs of wear on them but on looking at the inside of the tyre they are still good.

They were fitted in 2007.
I have only changed them because my father is taking the motorhome on a 4000 mile trip in Europe next month and I am a little OTT on things being replaced in the hope that nothing upsets his travels.
If the van was staying around Ireland I would certainly not have changed them.

At what age do tyres fail the test?
Even do your Motorhome is eight years old the tyres could be in stock for a while and be older. I think you made a wise decision by changing them, many people change them much younger.
