Hood super sport tire

[1970ChevelleSS]

I just bought an ao chevelle wheel and it has a Hood super sport king low oval glas tire on it. Is there any way to see when it was made?

That's a tough one Carmen. There will be a manufacturer/date code stamped on the back side of the tire that is an alphanumeric series. Problem is that it will be a challenge to find someone to decipher it. Are tires still made or was the company bought out by someone else still business that you could ask?

Sam. Not sure if the tires are still made. I did find this article from 1970.
