Re: Dunlop 10 inch production date
This brochure is dated 1969 and some of the variants weren’t in production yet, although the 10” are already available. I’d imagine that would be pretty close to the start for the mini wheels
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/266406956222 This one is advertised as a 1968 brochure
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/143634979025
This one is dated July 1968

Re: Dunlop 10 inch production date
I have definately seen them on race Minis from at least 1969
Yes I am a nerd: I am researching the Austrian Mini-racing scene of the 60s and 70s

Re: Dunlop 10 inch production date
There’s an example on this set on eBay. The number in the centre will be the year, and I’m guessing they add an extra mark around the diameter for each month
