age actually matters very little for a tire. The only frequent problem related to age is dryrot, you will see small cracks start to develop between the treads and/or on the sidewall of the tire. This means you should probably replace them but is actually caused by exposure to the elements and not solely age. Keeping your car in a garage will help prevent this problem. Obviously also if the tread is worn out from mileage they should be replaced.

Change just two tires?

Fragmented question?? If you have under 3/32nd's remaining on your tires replace them. If you have wires hanging out of your tires replace them. Replace tires as needed or rather replace all at once if you do not like mis-matched tires. However many people will replace just two tires at a time then rotate when the other two need replacement.
