How old can the production date of new car tires be?

[DeSabrina]

New car tires should not be older than 3 years from their production date. Below are specific details about tires: 1. Definition of stock tires: Tires that have been in storage for more than 1 year after production are considered stock tires. However, this also depends on the tire's lifespan. Typically, all-season or economy tires have a lifespan of 3-5 years, with a mileage of around 50,000 kilometers. 2. Checking the tire production date: To find out the production date of a tire, you need to understand how to read the production date marked on the tire. The production date can usually be found on the sidewall of the tire, represented by a four-digit number. The date is part of a series of alphanumeric characters starting with DOT, where the last four digits indicate the production date. The first two digits represent the production week, and the last two digits represent the production year.
