I believe the format is wwyy (week/year), so 2410 would be the 24th week of 2010.

If you haven't (whether you stick with 14" tires or upgrade to 15"), I would replace the rubber valve stems with metal stems and have the wheels balanced.

I would also consider a tire pressure monitoring system. If nothing else you'll know you're never running under-inflated.

Here is the brand I used.

This model has user replaceable sensor batteries.

If you get a TPMS, find another forum member that has the same model and split the cost of a pair of sensors so you can also monitor your spare (most sell the sensor packs in pairs).
