I m going to teach you how to check your car tire's to see if its
expire!! The date your car tire are manufacture and the date of expire is only 5 years. I know alot of people will say that 5 years ah, my tire already botak loh! Yes, its true. But what if your newly bought tire that have a life of only one month to expire? How are you going to check, whether the tire mechanic is bluffing you. Now, go to your car tire and check for this sign:

( *2603* ) the asterik is at the begining and the end of this number. The first two number 26 means the number of weeks in that year it manufacture, ( one year have 52 weeks, remember)
The last two number is the year its manufacture.
The above 2603 show that the tire's are manufacture in the 26 weeks of year 2003.
*2699*
This number show that this tire's are manufacture in the 26 weeks of year 1999.

If your are going for a long distance journey, do check all your tires for your own and your dearest passenger safety.
Expired tire are bound to be exploded if its run on a hot weather,
because
the car tires rubber and the inner layer are starting to crack up.

ganoon pala iyon iniisip ko nga kung saan makikita ang expiry ng mga gulong eh.

doon lang pala, universal ba ito i mean standard ng lahat ng tire manufacturer ang pag stamp nila ng exiry date?

wow thanks a big help, does it applies with mud/all terrain?

yung 31 bfg A/T ko may kuntil parin for 3yrs :D daily driven for 30kms and sometimes offroad

buti nalang nabenta na hehe

thanks again :D :D :D

...as it turns out, its not standard.

pero look for a number in between (* *) yung last 2 digits yung year of manufacture. This number is between two "spikes" which resemble the head of philips screwdrivers. Sa officemate ko 00 nakalagay, his is a 2000 RAV4. Mine says 02.

on my tire, it is marked *01*. so i guess ok pa gamitin until 2006, pero baka naman bago abutin ang 2006, pudpud na ang gulong ko nun

Tire has individually engrave manufactured date example "0806" 08-means 8 weeks 06-2006. Tire was manufactured 8 weeks of 2006 (Feb 2006).
Expiration is 4 years from the date manufactured. After 4 years tires must be replace to avoid problem. I don't know why DTI doesn't imposed penalty

for those store selling expired tire since it is unsafe.

I have a friend whose tires are already 7 years old. Maalaga sa sasakyan at maski 7 years old na iyong tires nya di mo makikitang pudpod na pudpod kasi lagi itong nirorotate at chinecheck / repair ang camber. Question is kailangan pa rin bang palitan ang gulong nya maski hindi pa ito nasisira. Take note pagtitignan mo gulong nya parang bago pa rin at makapal na makapal pa ang threads.

Tol depende rin sa gumagamit ng sasakyan iyong sa akin mas matagal pa riyan at dito lang sa malapit pang service ginagamit ang sasakyan hindi ko pa rin pinapalitan dahil makapal pa naman thread .Kung safety reason ang gusto mo me paraan pa palagyan mo na lang ng interior sa loob parang bago ulit goma mo .
