How to Calculate Tire Age?
1 Answers
Tire age is generally marked on the outer side of the tire, and the production date can be obtained from the last four digits of this marking. Below are specific details about automotive tire specifications: 1. Specification Model Representation: Tires are crucial components of a vehicle, and they come in various specification models, each suitable for different types of vehicles. The specification model is usually indicated on the sidewall of the tire through a series of alphanumeric characters, representing the tire's tread width, aspect ratio, type, rim size, load index, and speed rating. 2. Speed Rating: Based on the maximum speed they can sustain, tire speed ratings are categorized into different levels from A to Z, with level A further divided into eight sub-levels from A1 to A8. Generally, the later the letter representing the tire's speed rating appears in the alphabet, the better the tire's performance.
