Date code location on Goodyear 395/85 20 MVT

i HAVE LOOKED THESE TIRES OVER AND CANT SEEM TO FIND THE AGE OF THESE TIRES ANY SUGGESTIONS

I believe there are many tires that were purpose built for theatre and did not need a DOT code. I noticed that 2 of my tires did not have one on the outside wall but did on the inside, so the DOT code is only on one side of the tire. If you can't find it on either side, perhaps it was never built for DOT specs?

They are only one one side. Last 4 numbers will be separate from the others. I've never seen an MVT without a date code

Dot numbers should always face outwards

when your looking at a mvt where are you finding it ln conjuntionton to the tire sise or the mvt on the sidewall? Near the the rim of middle of tire ?

 

[simp5782]

It's right above the wheel lip. It will all be in pairs of numbers. It will be under the small print warning label that is dead in the center with the tire size above it if I remember right.

Well thanks for all the help ! In normal fashion(The hard way) every tire on the trailer the date code was turned to the inside but the good thing they were all the same year as the trailer so i own at least 4 tires made in the last 10 year now i need 2 more mvt 395/85/20 made in the last 5 yrs if anybody has a sorce for them let me know and i will put them on the steer and these tires on the drives .

If I am not mistaken, chucky has a single axle version of that trailer.
That one above is a M1095 Believe the single is a M1082

[chucky]

I made the comment just a week or so ago to Third from Texas if i could find a 1095 i could take some fat girls on a hay ride ! I hope they wernt reading my post now !

Can you still tow that with your overhang?

And while we're at it, you stole that trailer so you should return it.

Holy Crap chucky !

If you happen to figure out that the M1095 won't "tow" behind your truck, I would like to have "first right of refusal" if you decide to unload it. Would have thought though that you already have a M1082, so that shouldn't be an issue. Right?

No at the moment i sold the only trailer i could pull with the truck was my 989a1 but my plan all along was to get a 1082 or 1095 and make a adjustable length telescopic beam tounge on which ever trailer i went with and use big slide pins and box beam heavy wall like a log trailer to slide in itself to colapse it or extend it out to 4 or 5 feet so the box/ top on the trailer wont get into each other like ditch crossings kind of articulation is my plan and just to make more work i think im going to do it to a 1082 and the 1095 both for what ever i need it to do for the trip and sale my other 1082
