Default Just FYI - Tire Age

Hey All,

I am sure all of you know this but, recently a buddy of mine bought a "New" set of tires. Well, low and behold, these "new" tires that this certain store sold him, were actually 11 years old. He was driving down then road when 2 of the tires tread just came off....luckily he did not lose control and wreck, but just a word of advise, check your DOT dates on your tires, even when you are buying them "new"...

Yep, I look at the date code on all the tires I buy, even the ones on my trailer. I just put tires on my C -- date code 0210
