Watch this ABC News video clip on tires. It's approximately 9 minutes long and definitely worth watching. I'm checking my tires. http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=4826897 |

So, who knows how to "decipher" the date code on Batteries? THIS is the closest I could come to finding it on short notice. |

Thanks InCommando:D we aquarii have to watch out for each other When you see dry rot, replace your tires. it's not that hard to figure out. I've got a BFG Radial T/A from 1977 that I would NOT hesitate to put on a car, but I've seen two-year-old tires that are unsafe. Not everything you see on 20/20 and Dateline is true. I know, it's a shock... |

Case in point, the new OEM Goodyear tires harden excessively fast so within the first 3 years plus, the rubber compounds harden and you are sliding all over in wet conditions. |
