Pete,
As we say Downunder - "No worries, Mate" you can keep those seven year old
tires on "she'll be right!" ;-)

Subject: Re: [GMCnet] Date Code on Blown Tire
ok, ONCE in a while I get skeptical about some of things posted here. This
one I was about to file in the "they're retired and have too much money and
time on their hands" file.
Perplexed because I just purchased tires a few years ago. 6 or 7 years ago.
My time flies! So I went out and looked, and the only thing I could find
that looks like it could be a date shows me the tires are 7 years old.
Trying to apply logic, there's only 7,000 miles on them! It's time for their
first rotation!
so then I googled it, and found this:

ombs
and I thought a boat was a hole in the water that you poured money into.....
