Old tyres, would you ride on these?

Personally I would, I wouldn't do anything too crazy, no huge jumps, but yes. In the spirt of 90's Extreme and Jack Ass I'd ride them. Up to 20mph on a trail or road I'd have no problem.
When you see the state of some bikes and tyres, and when I think back to being a youth when we didn't change a tyre until the carcass was worn through. Sure they'd be okay.
In todays world I'm sure folk would say "No"
 
Yeah I only ride to the shops, but of grass or muddy track is as far off road I get. Sounds good, I will check them each ride
 
As someone who has taken multiple 3-mile hikes while pushing my bike back to the car, I can tell you that those tires are perfect for your cool retrobike that hangs on the wall and doesn't get ridden. Get some modern skinwalls for regular rides. Some reissue Smoke/Darts would be a great relacement.
