Arrow Ages Tires ? A driving Hazard (video)
I hope this will help future tire buyers..
After 6 years of shelf life, a tire can dry out and lose their stickiness.
Watch the video to see the hazard of old unused tires.

Watch abcnews video



15 stands for the 15th week. 9 stands for 1999

If the digit says (1505) then it means it's the 15th week of 2005
