Default Hoosier A6's

Jim- I recently ordered some Hoosier A6's from you guys, and i am curious... how do I find when these tires were produced??? I see that there is some stamping on 1 side of the tire, does hoosier have codes for month, day and year??? The reason I am asking is, someone from my region bought new tires at the end of last season, and they were actually older than the ones she was replacing??? And yes they did order from Tire Rack.

Thanks- glenn

look at the last four numbers of your DOT . To determine the date look at those 4 digits

for example lets say its 4307


43 is the week of the year

07 is the year manufactured.

More often than not the tires we get from Hoosier are real fresh. We are within 10miles of the mfg. plant. The dates swhould be on the tires.
