Thanks, Lynn, it's great to hear there's someone else who enjoys looking stuff up "just because." It'll be interesting to see if anyone here knows the BF Goodrich "cipher" for this one. Have a fantastic day.

Sadly, it is a Goodyear, not a Goodrich, so not sure they used the same date coding system. I do not believe they were standardized to the same extent VINs were standardized.

You can see in the second pic, the DOT marking is not right by the tin.

I would bet the tire has been replaced.

"Again, there's nothing super important here, it's the nerd in me trying to put some pieces together. Thanks again, guys."

Oh, I get it. I have spent many hours checking out stuff no one else gives a crap about.
