Tire advice needed

Getting ready to take out our 2014 flying cloud out for the season and noticed the tires look fine but in some there are dents where the blocks were wedged. Also, ran hand along tire exterior near rim and it feels lumpy. Sits mostly in dirt storage lot when not in use. I tend to err on the side of caution and want to replace all before hitting the road. Thoughts? Also, any tips for when or if they get swapped out and what to make sure techs should do and shoudnt do?
thanks

From a high level you should not be having any issues with 1 year old tires even if they are goodyear marathons. You may have some storage memory issues from your storage but that should go away when the tires get to temperature. With respect to changeout, there is a lot written on the forums about tires that you might want to avail yourself to. I personally changed out my GYM's at 25k for 16" Michelin LT's.
