    How old are your tires? manufacturing and expireation date

    this is from another forum that I frequent and was quite useful, I learned I should not have sold my RE070s since my current tires on the stockers are made from the first week of 2002... code 0102

    [​IMG]
    means the tire was produced in the 3rd week of 2005

    Mine have been on my car for 5 days...I will check to see when they were made.

    Edit: just checked...no date code. It has stamped...DOT CCOL then in little letters...F2142 and a bar code. Hmmmmm.

    check both side of your car as the date is only stamped on one side of the tire
