Default How do I locate the build date...

I just got some "new" Fuchs that came with tires. While I am likely going to not use the tires, I would like to know how old they are. The seller had no idea.

If it helps, they are Dunlops.. I think the "model" is D40M2?

Any ideas?

they had them in the mid-90's... but not sure when they stopped selling them... possibly around '98-'99
