TIRE FAILURES CAUSED BY OLD TIRES

Tires do not last forever, even if the tread shows little visible wear. As rubber ages, it loses elasticity, hardens and can become brittle. The reinforcing cords inside a tire can also deteriorate and lose strength. This increases the risk of a sudden tire failure the older a tire gets. After six years, the risk of failure goes up sharply. Because of this, many safety experts say tires that are more than six years old have expired and should be replaced regardless of how much tread is left on the tires.

All tires have a date code stamped on the sidewall. You will find it in a little recessed rectangle on the side of the tire. The date code reveals the week the tire was manufactured, and the year.

Before 2000, the date code had three digits. Since 2000, it has had four. The first two digits are the week of the year (01 = the first week of January). The third digit (for tires made before 2000) is the year (1 = 1991). For most tires made after 2000, the third and fourth digits are the year (04 = 2004). In the photo below, the date code is 0806. That means this tire was manufactured during the eighth week of 2006.

Check the date code on your tires, and if they are more than six years old you should probably replace them, especially if you do any high speed driving during hot weather or heavily load your vehicle. If your tires are more than 10 years old, they are a blowout waiting to happen. Don't take unnecessary chances. Replace them now!

Why Tires Fail

======================


Which reminds me that I need to have my tires replaced soon. The vehicle turned seven just today.

OT:

also remember to have your spare tyre secured and lock properly baka hindi pa umabot ng 6 years eh wala na spare tyre mo.

san yung biyak? sa sidewall o sa surface?
kung sa surface, patapalan mo yung loob as in parang vulcanized.
kung sa sidewalls, delikado.
