Opinion on these cast iron tubs

Hello, 

I don't have any experience with cast iron tubs, from these photos are you able to tell if this is a "definite replace now" situation or a "its just a gamble if you keep them" situation? 

The upper lip around the tub is all rusted out and gone. The last photo shows where the tile will end up being, it will sit beyond the rust area and it looks like a good caulking will seal it. I have 3 of these tubs, this is the worst one. Cost to replace all three I estimate about $2100 including the tub and my contractors help to install. Thoughts?
