That was my first thought as well. If I remember, sopranos27 just recently bought his 2012 trailer as a "new to me" purchase. I'd be interested if these were the original tires on the trailer and if so, they could be 6 or 7 years old. If they are not the OEM tires, the date of manufacture is on the DOT stamp which is molded into the tire sidewall. It will be a 4 digit number. The first two numbers are the "week of the year" and the second two are the "year". I'd suspect these tires are OEM and were "long overdue for replacement"....
