16 year old tires, 30,000 miles, good or no?

The tires are in good shape, no cracking in the sidewall or tread. It appears as though 60% of the tread has been used. Can I use these tires for a month while I save money. The truck is only driven on the weekend.

    you think they are in good shape.. go ahead and use then but if you have to stop suddenly of use the freeway they may blow..

    They should have been changed long ago, but go ahead and use them anyways. theyve been used up to this point. make a note to yourself though: if one of those tires blow and you get into an accident, you are responsible if you hurt someone.

    I'd replace them.. Rubber doesn't age well and 16 years is a long time.
