You try for a build date that's less than a year from the time of purchase, can easily be found if you're buying a popular tire at a place that goes through inventory quickly. I wouldn't buy a "new" tire that's more than 2 years old but I'm sure there are some tire ****'s out there who'll comment that 2 years is unacceptable:). There have been case reported on these boards where someone was shipped tires that were 4-5 years old.....so its wise that you consider it.
