This actually just reminded me: What is the tire life on cars, regardless of tread? I've read 10 years and 5 years.

For context, my Z came with new tires when I bought her in 2018 and put roughly 12K miles on them to date, which are now 7 years old. Car was always parked in the garage. Does the 10 years stand or should it be sooner?

In the RV world. It's 7 yrs. Now if it's stored inside. That can add on to that.

FWIW, a lot of people never change the spare tyre and it can be like 15 years old but still perfectly usable, holding pressure. I think it's probably the best stored tyre of all, but still - most tyres will start to become plastic after 6 or so years.

Spare tires don't get direct sun light with UV rays. That's what kills tires.
