| I know this has been talked about- i coukdnt find it right off hand- but,is there a pretty easy way to determine the date of a tire? Will it be located in the same spot on most of them? |

| Resurrecting my own old thread on this- all I could find on the tires that were on the 1995 4star that we bought a couple of summers ago: DOT PdHH37KRR-40144K-32888S4STRK-2It could be that the manufacture date is on the opposite side but using the link that Paul provided,this one looked fairly complete- but no real clue for me as to the age |

The dealer said it had new tires when we picked it up but- we thought,hmmm.o k |

| It's been sitting in a tractor shed since we got it,for the most part.I don't think the date could be correct since we bought it the second week of June 2014 with these same ' new' tires,it's highly probable we were lied to at the time.
