Yes it is possible. I had some 1940 dated tires on some wheels that I had. A friend has a military trailer on his farm still in use with I think 1952 tires on it. I am sure that my C-15 had the original tires on the front until I replaced them last fall. The rubber had deteriorated badly and I couldn't read the date, but they were "Dominion Royal" tires.
