tire1.htm Plant Codes 649 - A9

tire2.htm Plant Codes AA - J9

tire3.htm Plant Codes K0 - YY

Check the left column to see the code for the tires on your car. This is a long list - about 230 entries. Some of these probably don't exist in the United States, but why not list them - the computer did all the work. Code example: Look for DOT on your tire. Immediately after is a four character code. The first two characters are the plant ID code. The first ones on this table are numerical zero, not "O"-as in 'Oh'.

Ex: DOT HNCT = New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada.
