Re: TIre Markings
[ QUOTE ]
Since the tire gurus are gathered I'd like to ask a tire marking question as well. I have four F70 x 14 RWL Goodyear Polyglas tires that came with my car when purchased several years ago. Anyone know how to tell if these might be the original tires versus reproductions of the original style? Thanks.

Dick,
The tires should have a DOT stamp on them. The last 2 digits are the year the tire was produced -- if I recall correctly.
The DOT stamp is usually oval-shaped and will be close to where the sidewall meets the wheel. I think the 1st 2 numbers are the manufacturer's code and the second is the year it was made.
