How to Check the Production Year of a Tire?

[ZaneAnn]

Tire production date can be found on the sidewall of the tire, with slight variations in marking methods among different tires. For example, if there are four digits "0912" on the tire, it indicates that the tire was produced in the 9th week of 2012. The following situations require tire replacement: 1. Every tire has a production date; pay attention to your tire's service life and mileage. If it exceeds this period or mileage, the tire must be replaced promptly. 2. Severe tread wear. As friction time increases, the depth of the tread will decrease due to changes in friction. When the tread depth reaches 3mm, the tire must be replaced immediately. 3. Check for tire bubbles. Most tire bubbles are caused by inconsistent tire strength. If these situations occur, the tire should be sent to a repair shop or 4S store for immediate handling.
