Where is the production date located on Michelin tires?

[Melanie]

The production date is marked on the sidewall of Michelin tires. Here are the relevant details: 1. Each tire's sidewall displays a string of characters containing basic tire information. 2. Different segments of this character string have different meanings - typically the last four digits indicate the production date. The first two digits represent the production week, while the last two indicate the production year. For example, 3513 means the tire was produced in the 35th week of 2013. 3. Tires generally have a shelf life of 5 years. When replacing tires, the production date should not exceed 3 years (the more recent the production date, the better, as this allows longer usage within the shelf life). However, tires only display the production date rather than indicating when the shelf life expires.
