Those tires were made in or after 1971 which is when the United States Department of Transportation mandated all tire manufactures use a standardized 10 digit DOT Tire Identification Number.

Goodyear Wide Tread GT RWL tires which came on 1968 and 1969 Z/28s will not have that DOT + 10 digit number sequence
