This is an interesting news clip about the age of tires. Many of you may find it as informative as I did.

Welcome back Bob!

I saw the original broadcast and since I was in the auto industry for many years, it was not new news to me. Glad they got it out to the consumer so they'd know what to look for when purchasing "new" tires. I just purchased a set of tire for our Journey and the manager of the Goodyear store sure gave me a funny look when I asked to date check the new paws they were about to put on our rig. He did oblige and we went to the store room and found all 4 to be the same date and about 4 months old. The tires were on sale and clearly I wanted to know what I was getting. After the broadcast, I bet alot of folks are asking more question to the tire dealers! Rockin'
