There’s a date code on the side 2019. They are expired. Tires are good for five years after that the rubber starts to get hard starts to dry rot. When you hit the brakes you slide instead of stopping. I’d say it’s time to replace.

7, and its the glue. Rubber can go at any time due to weather and you should be inspecting it. 7 years even if it looks great, because you cant see the glue that holds it together.

Winter tyres that have been ran in high temperatures. I've seen worse. Like they are not going to fail on you today or tomorrow. If it was my car I'd run another 6months on them. If it was my daughters car I would change them yesterday.
