Hey Gents,

Can anyone help with a tire date? Its a Goodyear Speedway Wide Treat off a '69 Vette. The code is JE01B01. It is a DOT tire.

Thanks,
Dan

Dan,

Just saw this thread on team Chevelle that may be of some help to you....

Based on that, it appears that your tire was made in November of 69.

Martin,

Have you tried inquiring of Michelin Customer Service? (Michelin now owns the Uniroyal brand). I know some people have not had any luck inquiring of them, but I certainly did.

J=1969
E=November
O=Goodyear
1=Akron, OH
B=F70
01=Sidewall configuration and color

To my knowledge, Firestone and Uniroyal code information is not known.

Regards,

Mark
