    We’ll never know unless you try. Slap that puppy under your car and if we don’t hear from you at the end of winter then we know it wasn’t good for another season.

      I did that too once in the middle of winter with a car I had just bought. I just gave the tires a glance and they looked good so I didn’t think much of it. I found out they were from 1995 when I did a more thorough check later… But I really couldn’t tell aside from the fact that they were pretty noisy on the road.

        Yeah, its good when nothing happens.

        I took mine one lap around the nurburgring.

        But the car didnt drive over 80km/h… Sometimes you just have to gamble

        It says W. Germany, I guess it took a while to upgrade the tooling then.
