Guys I am sure lots of you track guys
know this but I figured I would inform other NSX owners
that may not know this.
remember this applies to ALL tires.
Tires have a Shelf life.
5-6 Years is the Shelf life that Rubber in the tires are stable. at high speeds
and every tires is stamped with the day it was made. All tires have this date.
some tires companies stamp both sides and others only stamp one side.
I think because some tires are one direction only and others are Bi-Directional
so if you look at your tires and you dont see a stamp, then It will be stamped on the other side.
here are some pictures of 4 different tires.
which tire is the newest?
answers
picture 1 = 3606 which means the 3 month the 6th day of 2006 (06)
pictures 2 = 4608 which means the 4th month the 6th day of 2008 (08)
pictures 3 = 2207 which means the 2nd month the 2nd day of 2007 (07)
pictures 4 = 2310 which means the 2nd month the 3rd day of 2010 (10)
so if your tires are stamped 06 and older the driving at high speeds
I would think anything over 50mph is considered high speed.
you could be indanger of a blow out. check your tires age for god sake.
just thought I would share.
