    Very useful information Rick thanks for posting.

    Last thing I did when we moved from Etobicoke to King City in September 1997 was put new tires on the Boss 302. So even though the tires look brand new I guess they are a few years past their prime. lol


    Built not bought! Follow this link to my 08 GT/CS Air Lift Performance Suspension Install Thread or this link to my Garage Thread

    My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my car and parts for what I told her they cost!

    Snow tire season is comin on fast, be sure to check those tires dates. Better safe vs sorry after a blow out or accident.

    Do all tires have this DOT code? I'm trying to buy some used winter tires but some replies say they can't find it on the tire. Are they BSing me or so some tires not come with the code?
    Cheers!

    I do believe all tires have to have it by law.

    Take it to the track and remove the years of rubber off them....then replace with new tires

    Good idea to check dates before storing your ride + check snows before installing.
