DOT requirements for standardized date codes on tires went into effect during the 1971 calendar year prior to that BFG tires appear to have a un-date-able serial number what's on your spare?

that appears to be the '71-up STANDARDIZED DOT format - what else is there to the right CA - manufacturer - BFG plant AKRON OHIO MA - size - F78-14 K1CU - type - officially ?? (belted space saver)? ? ? - date - did they get rid of the 6-hole wheel during the '71 model year?
