Rule of thumb I have heard for a street bike tire was 5 years from the date mounted or 10 years from the date of manufacture which ever is shorter.

I wouldn't worry about a 3 year old tire, it will won't last a year on the bike anyway the way I ride. Haven't had a tire last a whole year yet.

I do however think there is a warehouse somewhere that needs to do a better job rotating their stock.
