I think we all have enough common sense to tell when tyres need replacing.
In addition to lack of tread and cracked sidewalls, there is the problem of the “rubber” hardening, the tyres I took off the box saloon were like Bakelite, thankfully I only used them for low speed towing, however, the tyres on my Velocette are still perfectly serviceable and they must be twenty years old.
