More often than not it is age that is more damaging to tyres than mileage, cars that don't get used that much will tend to suffer from sidewall cracking if they've been standing for any length of time.
Likewise you may be ok with a 15 year old cambelt, or you may not.
I'd be surprised knowing how ZTs at least munch through tyres every 2 or 3 years that you'd find them with tyres over 10 years old anyway
There was a serious coach crash a couple of years ago caused by a tyre that was over 20 years old and when I renewed the tyres on my bus I found one dated from the 80s
