The last four digits of the serial number indicate the manufacturing date of the tire. It consists of four digits in the format "AABB". The first two digits "AA" represent the week of the year, while the last two digits "BB" represent the year. Here is more information about car tires: 1. Tire manufacturing date code format: The first two digits indicate the production week, and the last two digits indicate the production year.
