Even brand-new WTB tires are trash. But to answer your question, yes.

No concern from me – I’d ride it. Most of the photos seem to be mud/dirt? The second one looks like rubber has worn but I’d still ride that given that the tread looks okay and it’s a really tiny area that looks worn.

WTB tires aren’t great, but I’ve ridden way worse shape tires with no issues. Run it with tubes if you’re worried about it.

Not seeing anything that sealant won’t work its magic on. Should be fine.

No. I mean, its WTB so it isn’t that great. But, it looks like an XC level tire so its casing is going to be thin which is why you can see some of the threads on the inside.
Tread looks like it has some life left.

I see no issues. The treat still seems good. I kept looking for some kind of sidewall puncture. Even then with a bacon strip running tubeless you’d be fine

Looks perfectly fine to me – I was hunting to see the issue I’m supposed to see.

I had a brand new one also with less then 100 miles and had to junk it. Just not worth loosing a tire out on my ride.

If it’s a Nano-raptor it was trash the day it was made.
Looks ridable to me, again (trying not to best a dead horse), you’re probably not gonna be doing sketch stuff on that tire.
