you can check the tire manufacturer's codes on the sidewall of the tires to see the month/year they were manufactured...

Nothing new here for me, had this all figured out by the time I finished HS. Here is a newsflash for you if you have enough HP you can melt slicks on asphalt even in the summer. Slicks need a properly prepped track to work.
Well damn I guessed close, 0115 date code
Yep, I did something similar a few years back. Had a nice set of summer performance tires on the car and simply didn't think about it. Come winter got stuck a bit in the snow coming up a hill, I finally made it but looking at the rear tires a few days later - they were done, tread was gone. I can't even really explain except I was spinning them like crazy getting up that hill. Since then I learned my lesson - on that ride, she gets summer and winter tires now.

Yeah along with 7 million other guys most of which are crammed into essentially one huge metro area that's growing fast? No thanks ;) I'm trying to get to Montana.....almost 50% larger than Arizona and only 15% of the population. And not nearly as hot in the summer. :)
Does that Nomad have cold weather tires? Does it matter?
