My (7-8 years old) tires still had pretty good tread but time to replace them. not bad for an old 1994 Astro, just turned over to 100K few months ago. Think I will keep it just like it is.
New set of tires YES!!!

New set of tires YES!!!
Just bought a new set of tires for my 1994 Astro, got to say, love them. New tires make such a difference all around in handling, ride & safety.

Re: New set of tires YES!!!
What make, model, and size format tires? I'm in the process of getting my M11006 on the correct size, already landed one pair of IRONMAN® RB-12's in 215/75R15 100S for the steer axle at Tred Shed® Tire Pros (50 Bliss Avenue, Pittsburg, CA 94565-4938 USA). (The drive axle's shod with undersize tires, spec. Venezia® Classic 787 in 205/70R15 89S, which are already on the replacement schedule for January 2020.) Still have to find me a ø15"x6.5" stamped or spun steel for a full-sized spare as well; the T145/90D16 won't even level the truck.1997 GMC M11006 (Safari SLE, 2WD, V6-4300/4L60-E/7.625" 3.73:1 open)
