Flue you gave me an idea, would armor all or some other petrolem based product keep a side wall "lubed up"?
I don't know, years ago it used to be said once you started with Armor All you could never stop or your dash was toast. I've got a feeling that was a load of bull much like it was said Carmex put fiber glass in the stuff to keep you buying more carmex. Gotta love a good urban legend.
Michelin has 3 part cleaning and protection product, but who knows.
I bought my truck (2001) in 2007. It still had the original tires on it. All but one dated back to 2000. The tires were fine. In 2008 they started cracking a little but were just about worn out anyway when I replaced them. I'm now running the Tredwright retreads (search Treadwright for posts about them) with casings dated back to 2006
And while harsh I agree with Purpl. Maintenance is key.
