in addition to manufacturing date, size i.e, height, width & aspect ratio, is there anything more to look before purchasing new tyres for the cars.
specially for the weather conditions & terrain of Gulf, is there some more specs & parameters to consider?

you might want to check the speed rating if you drive at higher speeds for long periods, for example, if you make a lot of trips to dubai and stuff..otherwise, you'll be fine with just making sure the tire is fresh and not past its 'best'

The tyres should be bought carefully as it is the main part of the vehicle that carries it on, so you should be very careful for its expiry. cheap car tyres

Yes the date is very important as tires tend to dry out as time goes hence loosing grip.Maximum tire life is 3 years from date shown.

The 2nd bit of information is called treadware this has an aspect from 180 [soft =more grip but shorter life] up to 440 [ meaning lomg life but lower grip ]

some tyre shops are selling tyres which are old stocks in their warehouses. tyres produce small cracks after 2 yrs especially if not well kept in a desirable temperature inside a warehouse. and old tyres with cracks are dangerous to use in high temperature places like Doha. so be careful when buying. go to a trusted & respectable dealer.

Personally I always buy a branded tyre. Also is should have written on the tyre wall 'Temperature A'.
