Oh.. Thank you mate.

 

Just to double confirm, the right side of the tyres - Date code is hidden inside .

 

I read the tire side wall (outside) should be harder than inside for the cornering loads..

Yeah mine is also hidden inside... the manufacture date is 2013

[Samwng]

Anyone .. fitted ku31 with all 'date code' showing outside the tyre?

 

I just want to make sure this is a norm, not my car fitted with 4pcs of left side tires.

Kumho good 👍 latest KU36...very Good👍

After calling and confirm with a few local workshops.

 

KU31 tires - DOT no. only printed on left side of all their tyre.

 

Therefore, you won't be able to view the no. from the right side of your fitted tyre / vehicle.

 

** There is no problem to fit the tyre left / right in this case ; As long as the direction arrow is pointing toward the front of your vehicle.
