Answer:
The DOT code may be found on the sidewall of the tire close to the bead, and sometimes on the interior facing wall. For modern production tires made after 1999, the last four digits of the code reveal the date of production. For example, 2517 would mean the tire was built the 25th week of 2017. Please let us know if you have further questions!
