Is there any way you can post pics of these tires and their incomplete DOT codes from both sides of the tire?
You might be in line for some replacement tires if there is no date code......as this is a condition for NHTSA to 'order' a recall on them (if the manufacturer doesn't issue a voluntary one), as they won't adhere to NHTSA tire labeling standards. If these tires are imported thru a distribution network, then the distributor becomes liable for the recall......if the Chinese manufacturer can't be forced to. This same scenario just happened several years ago with an importer called Foreign Tire Sales.

Will try to post them saturday (hopefully). I was aware that the code dates were on the inside
Will be getting new ones soon.
