Maybe so. But I'd prefer to get the expert advice from someone who is not in the business of selling tires. For example, here is a CR article on the subject:
 
http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/cars/tires-auto-parts/tires/tire-sorter-cars/- allseason-tires-1105/overview/
 
Here is an excerpt (emphasis added by me):
 
Tread life is important, but it shouldn’t outweigh braking, handling, and other critical safety factors. Indeed, tires that last too long may pose a safety risk, since rubber compounds deteriorate with age. That has led some automakers to recommend discarding tires after six years, regardless of wear. So far, the list includes BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, Mazda, and Volkswagen, though not General Motors.
 
We recommend that you check your tires regularly for wear, cuts, and bulges, and replace tires older than 10 years.

 
So I think my 18-month old tires still have some safe life left in them, as long as they haven't been abused or damaged.

I don't know the number sandman, sorry. Don't expect anything when you do call, though. Keep us posted!

Well finally got done talking with my case manager and Honda has agreed to replace all 4 tires at a 50/50 split. From the start I said I was in agreement with this and happy this is the final outcome.

Faxed Receipts by sandman46

The nice lady at Honda gave me the info I needed to fax off the receipts about the tires. I'd be more than happy to get a 50% repayment but am not expecting much. Hope they'll do something though.
