Checking a tire life
Tire strength and performance
decline with age. Any tires that are
over 6 year old, including the spare
(determined by the tire manufacturedate), should be replaced regardless
of mileage. You can find the tire man-
ufacture date on the tire sidewall(either on the inside or outside of the
wheel). The date is a Department Of
Transportation (DOT) number con-
sisting of letters and numbers. You
can determine the tire manufacture
date by the last four numbers of the
DOT code. DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The first letters/numbers of the DOT
indicate the manufacturing plant, tire
size and tread pattern, last four num-
bers indicate week and year manu-
factured.
For example:
DOT XXXX XXXX 0803 represents
that the tire was produced in the 8th
week of 2003.
WARNING
A tire more than 6 years old may
cause separation of the cord
layers inside the tire leading to
loss of vehicle or a serious
injury. Therefore, make sure to
check the manufacturing dateand replace the old tire in 6
years after the tire manufactur-
ing date.
WARNING - Tire
temperature
The temperature grade for this
tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
build-up and possible sudden
tires failure. This can cause loss
of vehicle control and serious
injury or death.
