Between the customers that have refused service at my old job and all the "just rolled in" videos I've seen I just don't trust people's ability to upkeep their cars. My coworker is running around on the original tires of his 2008 Saturn and doesn't see a problem.

Car wasn't driven much (less than 50k miles), the real problem is they are dry af

Do I need to water my tires? /s

As a non car guy, they're dry from age?

The deteriorate as they age, especially if they aren't stored properly.

Not a car guy, but I imagine it's kind of similar to what happens to old rubber bands. They start to dry out and lose their elasticity.
