Tire dates, what are you getting?

When buying tires, I try to go local, but finding my favorite MotoZ brand is tough so I usually purchase them online. Rockymountainatvmc.com is my go to shop and tires I've received from them in the past have had manufacture dates that are usually less than 6 months old. The latest set I got last Friday were dated 47/23 for the front and 23/23 for the rear, which puts them at 10 months and 15 months respectively. 

I go through a set annually,  so these at and past a year old aren't a big deal to me, but might be to a rider that goes many years on a set. This isn't a direct criticism of RMATV as my guess is the older tires I'm receiving are a result of our slow economy and stock isn't moving as fast as before.

 

What are you guys receiving for manufacturing dates on your purchases?

Yes, my rims show I change my own tires. 😁
