I would ask Paul Walker about that. Oh, wait. You can't.

I did some work for a tire company and they said............

Regular street tires 10 years (std street, I think in general dangerous for Cobras)
Cobra Tires (race) 5-6 years (AKA Billboards, Dunlop and Avon's)

Difference being additive packages for heat cycles.

I kinda wish my tires would last that long. I use them up long before they age out.

Well, that way you get you money's worth! Better to wear 'em out than let them age out!
