What you have on the tyre is the date of manufacturing, not the expiry date. It's 4 digit. The first-two numbers represents the week, while the last two digits represents the year the tyre was manufactured. Mine was manufactured on second February, 2021.

In some countries, they expect their tyres to last for 6 years. Here, because our roads are bad, and the quality of some of the tyres we buy is poor, the lifespan is pegged at 4 years.

What road safety officers do when checking is to look for the day the tyre was manufactured, and add 4 years to it.

Who pegged the lifespan of tyres in Nigeria at 4 years? You, frsc, vio?
Where is the white paper or studies carried out by you or any of these to back up your claims?

It will be a waste of time explaining technology and technicalities to a novice.

It is minimum of 4years, maximum of 6 years.....

Not true.
Are you tyre manufacturer? Tyre may even wear out in less than 2 years. You can even use tyre for more than 10 years. Check michelin website.

I'm interested. Please show us picture of expiry date on your tyres.
They will show you production date,......they forgot production date is a date of beginning of existence of a product, manufacturers out of safety reason recommend to change the tyres subjected to USE/ IN USE after 10years, not a new tyre stored safely that has not be in service, it a conventional practice to test every tyre whether new or long manufactured to test, because a tyre is 10 year does not mean it has lost its quality and elasticity. Same goes for medicine, it hasn't lost it abilities to combat the desease it's made to do.
But hey, it's difficult the get a novice to understand the technology and technicalities.

now i know you are just a complete fool... Do you even know the definition of expire? something that come to the end of the period of validity
The expiry date must be counted and that was why its always indicated on for new tyres... The date of the manufacture needs to be counted to know the expired date and that was why it was written there... So basically the date of the manufacture acts as a guild for you...
Answer to your question the manufacture date acts as a guild for you to know what your tyre expiry...
Even all tyre manufacturers all over the world do write it on the new label and their sites... so i dont undertand what you are arguing on...
If you want to prove more ignorance i will reply you no more,,, common sense is not actually common.

So there are no expiry date stamped on tyres which is why you have yet to post a picture as someone earlier challenged you to, but resorted to these explanations which are tenable. Tires have shelf life within which they are in best condition, even if not in use. As such tyres cannot be stored or used indefinitely because it does not show serious wear.

Simple answer is the manufactured date is a guild to the expiry date... Which you can relate to like your food... If you cook today and you left it open for two days will you still eat it?
The date you cooked the food is the guild to which date you should throw it out if there is left over thats why tyer dates are in weeks and year not month and year

Long answer

I never called you an idiot. I simply implored that you not be one.
However, it seems my plea fell on an idiot.

Continue wallowing in your ignorance.

Are you ok? What kind of madness runs in some people's minds these days?

No one asked you, man claimed he would post pictures of his tyres' expiry dates to which we encouraged him to do. Now, man has gone dumb.

No one argued with your public display of ignorance and now that you have read it up and have seen the folly of your claims, than come out and apologize or keep shut, you come back spamming everywhere with a screenshot from one of hundreds of tyre manufacturers in the world, which ironically doesn't even prove the point.

Now you are quoting everyone and throwing tantrums like a spoilt brat.

What kind of education do they give you home and at school these days?

I'm not going to waste one minute of my time replying to the next thrash you'll spew. No. Not me.

Tyres DON'T expire, they either wear out or deteriorate. Get you fact right

If tyres don't expire, why do they have expiry dates boldly inscribed on them??

No be today nah. I did same some years ago and we all laughed it over. When I was confronted with the allegation I subtly asked them to allow me check theirs which their Oga granted and at the end of the day they also fell victim. After that we shifted the blame to "NIGERIA" as usual grin

Production date in the future bah??

When you buy a tyre for instance this year, and you find 2023 written on it, that's the production date bah?? New tyre oh, brand new tear rubber not Belgium tyres.
I can't save you from your ignorance though, but I am very conversant with the DOT (American) and EU conventional tyre codes which are mostly used internationally and legal technicalities, you are interpreting the codes wrongly.
