You want to check for splitting down in the grooves with steel showing. I was getting ready to use our 5th wheel two years ago, bumped the tires, checked the lug nuts and caught a glimpse of shiney down in the grooves. Upon closer inspection all 4 were 10 years old and all were splitting. Lots of tread left. Glad I caught it at home and not on the highway.
Using your tongue jack to break the tires down reminded me of dad and I using the weight of the wrecker's front wheel to break ours down.
