Michelin Tire Life

The tires on my Vegas are approaching 5 years old off date code. I have owned it almost 4 years (27,000 miles). Tire wear is excellent, no cupping, scallopiing or sign of camber/toe issues at all. I have looked for weather checking, nothing. I just checked and adjusted pressures today. They uniformly lose about 1 PSI/month on average. Tires always need equal amounts of air.

I have heard 5 to 6 years to change 19.5" RV tires, does it also apply to 16" Michelins? Unit is never overweight as it is a 24.1 on e450. I run tire pressures based on scale weights heavist on front without trailer, heaviest on rear with trailer.

What is everyone thoughts about when to replace based on experience with the 16" Michelins?
