Everything You Need To Know About Your Tyres (In Pictures) by Topiipii(m): 8:17am On May 05, 2016 |
I just came across a post shared on Facebook by a certain 'Bimal Nandana' which contains everything you need to know about tyres, having this information is very handy especially when buying a new tyre.

I did not see the expiry date on it as claimed by plenty on here.I heard tyres have expiring dates well in Nigeria. 2 Likes |

erico2k2:Tyres expire in 6 years from the date of manufacture, although I have read on several sites that it's 4 years in Nigeria. Whichever the case may be, you can calculate the expiry date based on the date of manufacture of the tyre. The link below sheds more light on tyre expiry dates http://www.tiresafetygroup.com/tires-expire-in-six-years/ 4 Likes |

Topiipii:ehehe, Nothing last for ever, however I do not see how you can use one tyre for up to 4 years without changing them.There is a thread gauge line in every tyre, when you go below that then you need change. depends on usage that can be just one year. |

erico2k2:with our bad roads in Nigeria,we don't suppose to use our tyres more than 2 years before changing it . Some crazy drivers can use their Tyre for 2 extra years.. |

Topiipii:Bro this is a lil bit confusing. The date on my tire is 2018. I assumed that was the best before date. Although I bought them in March 16. I felt it could have been in store for 2 years. I will attach pix when I am out of bed |

Tyres have no expiry dates. Why do you think a manufacturer wouldn't put such a date on a product? However this companies give u a warranty of 4-6 yrs depending on d product. There a number of factors which leads to tyres lossing strength and this factos are mostly known to take effects after at least 4yrs. For berra knowledge i advice u browse a producing company site like Brgdgestone. But as mkt must move na, we need to support tyre sellers dem ministry so e fit reach permanent site. |

tooman: Bros the expiry date is calculated from the tyre's date of manufacture, and not time of purchase. Pls don't misinform the public....... |

tires might require change after for years like Ya'll have heard, but the truth is that tires needs to be changed depending on the usage... The gospel truth is that if it's need change u'll know but it's the let's manage its like that stinginess of Nigerians that won't let us Change it... I am spells Pete n I just want to make common sense |

Also to add, our brothers who sell expired tyres change these information sometimes. These info are usually in raised prints and not stamped, and the font should be the same across the writings |
