I’m trying to date tires that recently came into my possession and I’m used to reading the month/year as numerical but these have an alpha thrown in too. Can anyone decipher this? I’d have a photo but it’s too dark.

you are probably reading the wrong code. I believe date stamp is first two numbers week and second two are the year. often triangles on either side.

check the other side of tire..only one side has the date code
