call up and they will probably ask for a serial number or w.e that is imprinted on the sidewall... they should give you VERY SPECIFIC instructions on how to determine.

usually recalls are for safety problems with the tires or material defects. Running them on the track with knowledge of problems with the tires seems like you are asking for problems.

I've already burned them out/drags race um before I got the letter with no problem.. I got them like 3-5 months ago if it was something really serious it wouldn't of took them that long I think it was even more tham 5 months ago...
