TIRES HAVE A SHELF LIFE

OK.....I have come across some information that most males who view this will find very interesting.....
All tires have the date when they were made on them....If you look carefully you will see numbers that read something like this....

3704 or maybe 458 .....

3704 means the 37th week in the year 2004

485 means the 48th week in the year 1995....

ok ...so you can put that information to figure out how old the tires are on your vehicle or maybe you are buying new tires.....make sure they are new tires.....

TIRES HAVE A SHELF LIFE....... 6 years according to the 20-20 TV PRODUCTION...... ...after that they become a ongoing risk......you decide how long you want to risk it I guess.....

I looked at my 1990 Nissan truck tires today and 3 are 8 years old and one is 11 years old......they are not real wore out yet but I think I will replace em ...they are over the hill......

I don't put many miles on my little old truck but I reckon she deserves some new shoes.
