Tire date code

My class C came with brand new ( the nubs were stil on the treads of the tire) not just on the sidewall. The DOT code on the tire is 5KRQ RC? What is that date code come out to?

  • The date code is in a series of characters that start with DOT and ends with 4 numbers. The first 2 numbers of the 4 are the week and the last 2 are the year.

    Here is more info on the DOT code.

    The date code is only required to be on one side of the tire. If the 4 numbers are not on the side you are looking at, look on the other side.
