UNDERSTANDING THE DOT NUMBER
   The federal government requires that all tires sold in the U.S. contain a Department of Transportation (DOT) number. The DOT number contains very important information about your tire that most people do not know is there. However, the DOT number is often found on the axle side of your tires, meaning you have to crawl under your vehicle or put the vehicle on a lift to read it. Perhaps the most important information contained in the DOT number is the date of manufacture of your tire.  Many U.S. and foreign tire companies are now warning consumers in Europe and Asia to discard even new appearing tires that are five or six years from the date of manufacture.  This is because the rubber and other components in tires break down over time, making older tires potentially dangerous even if they look brand new.   Although manufacturers do not give similar warnings in the United States, this is likely to change as lawmakers and watchdog groups including trial lawyers put additional pressure on tire companies to follow the same safety guidelines that are applied overseas.
   Next lets understand dry rot and its significance. It is caused mostly from lack of use and suns rays. Protecting tires from the sun is very helpful in preserving their life. Tire sidewalls showing cracks or other signs of dry rot should be removed from use.
   Lastly lets discuss air pressure. A large percentage of tire blowout is caused from running the tires with low air pressure or a slow leak which gone undetected allows temperature to elevate while driving.
   Now that you know the three most important things to watch for and monitor its time to answer the question at hand. Tires do not have to be discarded just because they are 5 years old. Have your service center monitor the condition at each PM service interval or you yourself visually inspect each time the RV is washed. When sidewall cracks, lines, bumps, or anything out of the ordinary is observed have a trusted and knowledgeable staff help you with your decision.
