[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1016609, member: 52972"] Tires have a date code on them. Some tires may have sat on the tire store warehouse shelves for 5 years or more before they were sold and installed on your vehicle. When tires start to crack early in their life, it usually means they were old tires. If you bought those tires more than 4-5 years ago, it is likely that they are just getting old. Also, check the date codes and see when the tires were made. The cracking is accelerated by sunlight, but it is old age that is the main cause. ...Richard [/QUOTE]
