One more question if anyone knows as I was looking at tires last night. I see one tire said 247. I would assume this is 24th week of 1997. Another real piece of crap had a number 239 on it. I know it's not 1999, doubt it even 1989, I would guess 1979. There's no way to know the decade on pre 2000 tires?


No there is not. After 2000 they went to the four digit but pre 2000 your on your own. I guess if you kinda knew what years certain tires were in production it could narrow it down?

On the ford van issue, i thought it was the switch for the cruise control. It did start from the dashboard area all 3 times..
Did anyone see the "Mythbusters" episode on the discovery channel where they wanted to see what happened when a truck tire seperated and what it would do if it hit him??
Its not pretty, and it WILL kill you..
