Michelin tires

Just posted in class A motor homes
Michelin tires 245/19.5 sate code 2514
the issue is side wall check cracking
I take very good care of my tires, 3rd set on my coach so far and I never had any tire issues at all.
this is just unacceptable to me
My tires are always covered and are parked on trex decking in my back yard. Pumped up the the proper pressure even during storage
FYI to every one that has these POS tires.
Keep a eye on them as they are apparently Junk tires that I payed p lot of money for.

    Mine are 4.5 years old and are getting quite cracked. Will replace them before next long trip. AND it's not sunlight that does it, looking at the inner rears they're just as cracked as the outers.

    I had severe cracking on three year old Michelins and two blew out the sidewalls in less then four years.

    Old??? They're not 5 years old yet!

    To the OP, welcome to the Michelin Club.

    It seems with a Michelin you never know what you'll get. Fortunately the last set we had on our MH were good, only set we've ever owned I could say that about - and we've owned a lot of them.
