Approximately how old are your Kenda 175/80R13 LRD tires mounted on the white spoked wheels? How much time typically passes from the tires date of manufacturer until the tires and wheels are shipped? Thanks,

We sell quite a few trailer tires, so for the most part, they don't hang around here for long.

Most of the tires we have in stock in the more popular sizes will have DOT date stamps within the previous calendar year. Slower movers might go back a bit further. Since the 175/80R-13 is a very popular size, we sell through our shipments quickly.

Keep in mind that a tire on a warehouse shelf isn't exposed to the weather or UV radiation which can break down tires over time.
