    I really appreciate Boo's #18 posting detailing instructions on how to check the tire date. I've just bought 4 Michelin Destiny tires, and confirmed that each tire was manufactured in 2008! I did consider taking that fraudulent tire dealership to small claims court. I can't stand the thought that other people are getting swindled. But I've started a new job and have to move on. Thanks for everyone's input on my situation. Rfruth is right. Buyer Beware (#14 posting).

    Thanks druud. But I was only quoting dogfriend's detailed instructions in post #5.

    So thanks again to dogfriend. Like druud said, it's great info.
