Hello, How can I tell what year this tire was manufactured, the birth date?

To determine the date any trailer tire was made, including the Loadstar ST225/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST96 you only need to find the date code.
There will be a four-digit code on the sidewall of the tire and the first two numbers are the week of the year it was made and the last two will be the year. For example if you see a code that reads 2918 that means the tire was made in the 29th week of 2018.
That said, tires do not wear out from age for anywhere from five to seven years unless they are in direct sunlight - ours are in our warehouse and are not exposed to the sun and are not going to be that age as we go through tire stock fairly quickly so any tire you get from us will be ready to go and in perfect condition.
The Loadstar ST225/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1ST96 is a load range D tire that has a maximum capacity of 2,540 lbs at 65 psi and fits 15" x 6", 15" x 6-1/2", and 15" x 7" rims. I have added a link to a video review of this tire for you to take a look at as well as a link to a help article on trailer tires I recommend checking out.
