I'm scared to death to drive such a beast on 18 year old rubber, so this is the first thing I'm going to do (replace tires) once I get the car in my possession. I'm just trying to have a plan as our driving season is short up here in MN. (:
You're right to be fearful of those tyres.

If you have 15" wheels, the best tyre is the Avon CR6ZZ. They're not cheap, but then what price your well being?

I have my wheels off at least twice each season, if only to check everything is okay under there.
