I have been trying to find out what date the tires on the GMC we just bought.
The date code seems to be C3J
Which does not seem to make any sense.

The reason I ask is that one of the tires has developed a problem since we got home.
I could swear this tire was fine when we first got home yesterday.
Obviously it is getting replaced immediately but is it a defective newer tire or way too old tire.
See the picture below.

Tom,

That C3J is probably a plant code. Many manufactures use that as the tire tooling can get moved around.
That tire will have a date code. Sometimes they are hard to find.

That tread stripped out is scary.
