Sam,

Shoot an email to Michelin (who owns Uniroyal now) and they should be able to decipher it for you. Worked for me!

I have my original spare Uniroyal F70 X 14 white lettered Uniroyal, coded UUA613. I didn't get any help either. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Contact Coker tire. Maybe they can help with the situation. I will do some investigation of my own.

Has there ever been any particular reason for them not to reproduce the Uniroyal tires? I could use a set. I wouldn't risk driving very far on my old ones.

You will have to contact Coker on that question. The parent companies still require a lot of paperwork, money, etc. for tires too be reproduced with their name on them. Kelsey is exclusive for Goodyear, Coker deals with Michelin on the BFG's and Uniroyals and with Bridgestone on the Firestones. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/scholar.gif
