I kind of got scammed by a local tire store when I took a weathered rear tire in to have it mounted to replace an unusable one. Some weathering around the lugs, but basically sound and no holes in to the tube, and will probably last my lifetime. Guy there said, "We can't mount that- too dangerous- we'd be liable if it blows up and kills somebody, etc., etc. You need a new tire- they'll fix you up at the front counter." Tractor tires are only 12-15 PSI, and if they do blow, there's not enough force to hurt anything- you just have a flat tire. I told them to just mount it, don't do anything else, I'll sign a release if you want. They called the owner, who is a guy I've known since we were kids- they explained what was going on, he looked at me and got kind of red-faced and told them to go ahead and mount it, no charge. Told me, sorry about the misunderstanding. He knew he'd been caught, and knew I knew.
