It's about time for new rubber on the 1500 Goldwing and I don't want tires that have been sitting on a shelf for a few years. The date code as I understand is the first two numbers are the week of the year and the last two are the year of manufacture. 2613 would be for a tire made mid 2013. Five years old.
What's acceptable shelf life and if it's not sitting on the dealer shelf how does one know ahead of time what is going to show up?
Goldwing tire selection isn't great and they don't tend to be on the shelf.
Thoughts?
