USEFUL TIRE INFORMATION
There is a lot of useful information molded into the sidewall of a tire. It
shows the name of the tire, its size, if it is tubeless or tube type, the
maximum load and maximum inflation, and important safety warnings.
The sidewall markings on passenger and light truck tires are slightly
different.
TYPICAL PASSENGER TIRE
The letters “DOT” certify compliance with all applicable safety standards
established by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). Adjacent to
this is a tire identification or serial number. This serial number is a code
with up to 12 digits that are a combination of numbers and letters. The
last characters are numbers identifying the week and year of manufac-
ture. (For example, “1502” means the fifteenth week of the year 2002.)
