What does tire date code '5317' mean?
I was browsing some Class C's for sale and they posted a photo of the tire with this date. HUH?

The 53 is because December 31, 2017 was on a Sunday, therefore entering a 53rd week. Code numbers for the month range from 01-53 for that reason.
You just made that up??? :B
No. Actually Pope Gregory XIII introduced the calendar in the 1500s. I wasn't born until the 1950s.
He was one smart Pontiff, figuring out tire date codes back then. :B
