worriesome at best is my concern. Ive driven 8 yo tires b4 and my reaction to your attempts is justified. first as last post stated bands and belts break internally. I diddnt notice after a slight vibration that lasted 4 miles a jolt { got lucky } as whole tread separated from carcass down to steel belts.
The car behind me was much too close and tried to use it for a hat.
Result was not good but thats a diff story.
These tires came off the shelf at a dealership at super discounted price. nearly new!
If you really must put them on rear only give yourself a chance should bad things happen.
The only thing I would use to soften them and only upon tread face would be bleach.
works well at the track.
