Do tyres over five years old invalidate your insurance?
I was under the impression that tyres over five years old would invalidate your insurance no matter what type they were. How can part worn tyres be allowed?

No, they do not. There is no law relating to the age of the tyre and nothing relating to the age of the tyre would invalidate the insurance. You may need to check your reference source.
