gshane Posted April 6, 2015 Report Share Posted April 6, 2015 I've always wondered how important the date od production is. I bought a pair of tires last year that were produced in 2013. Will this affect their performance...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this affect their performance...? The year of production plays an important role. The tires tend to become harder and they don't keep the same quality after a while even if they are not used. On the other hand, if you are using them only to drive in the city you are probably safe to go with tires that are 4-5 year sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Well RTA here in Dubai (Tasjeel, Shamil, Wasl) has a limit of 3 years (soft limit) and 5 years (hard limit) from date of manufacturing. If it's older than 3 years but lesser than 5, then inspector will check the tread and uneven wear presence before passing the vehicle. If it's 5 year old, then straight away fail even if tire has 100% factory tread and unused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
