Thought of a way to check a little closer.

We would assume a
Schrader stem would have a Schrader cap.
Dill stem would have a Dill cap.
That would help narrow it down
Still leaves dating the different type Schrader's but that is a separate issue.

"OLE BLUE" does indeed have its new condition "Firestone" spare.
Actually all 5 wheels have same 1/6/9 dates.
4 tires on car were changed so no help there.
May be an excuse to fill spare with Nitrogen next summer.
Still going with Schraders as they are by far rarer

Would like to know how car was new though.

Anyone have spare wheels with factory stem still that has looked at this?
Maybe there is a way to tell on outside?
Will get pics of hers.
