Date of tire manufacture
I purchase a new 2016 Honda Civic EX (Sensing) manufactured in Indiana in August 2016 and the date code on the FireStone tires were 4315.
Should I be concerned? Thanks Paul

Re: Date of tire manufacture
They were made in the 43rd week of 2015. The car you purchased was made in august of this year? Is that what it says on the VIN tag in the drivers door frame?
I have never seen a car with a production date of the current month and I am literally standing next to a car with 1 mile on it right now. Personally I wouldn't be worried about tires that were produced when your tires are labeled as being produced. I wouldn't ever buy a set of firestones, but I would drive a car that comes equipped with them.

Re: Date of tire manufacture
? Whats the concern anyway?
parts can be stored for a time before being used to assemble a car.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Take a walk around the dealers front lot and check date codes on other firestone tires?
or did the dealer do something. Thanks
