question on truck tire age

I'm sure this will end up being "replace your tires idiot" comment, but what is the longest period of time that you will leave your tires on your Truck? I have a 2015 F250. I just went and looked and I have the original tires made in Oct 2014. I can assume everyone would replace them when traveling with a 5th wheel? Yes, the tires still "look good", the tread is good, and have 37k miles on them.

If you have left them on longer, please tell me your experiences.

btw - The tires are Michelins and "made in USA" is on the tire. ok - fire away.

I use 6 years as the "age out" date on my truck tires. Unlike my trailer tires, I usually have to replace them before age 5 due to tread wear.

General advice of tyremakers in Europe is to let your tyres bechecked by a professional every year after 6 years, and preventively chanche them after 10 years. Tires stored for 2 years after production, can be seen as new tires.
