How long do Barum tires last?
This depends mainly on the kilometres driven and your specific driving style. Basically, average tyre life is five years: after this, tyres can only be recommended for use with safety restrictions. This is why summer tyres should never exceed a maximum age of ten years. It is far better to change your tyres sooner. Does the age of a tyre matter? Tyres are considered to be “new” and fit for retail up to 5 years from the date of production. This is an industry standard based on the German BRV. When in use, it is recommended that tyres are replaced when they reach 6 – 10 years old, (6 years in the case of caravans or trailers).
