If you value your car and your life, I would not run them! I have seen slicks come apart on the big end and the results ain't purty! They might LOOK fine until that big smoky burnout and then the tire separates. 10 years is a looooong time. I would put new rubber all the way around and not try and play the odds! Just sayin'. Jim
