I was washing my P/A and noticed that all of my tires has small little cracks around the center part of the side walls. I don't know how long they have been there, I use 303 on the ties and you can't see the cracks unless you wash the tire down with a brush. I have a 2004, does anyone else have this? Do the small crack speed up the time to start looking for new tires?

Paul... My 2004 tires are also cracking. Actually the left front is cracking really bad. The right is the next worse, then the two outside duals are less, but still cracking. I haven't gotten under to inspect the inside duals.

I called Michelin at their #800 number and complained. They said the tires are normally warrantied for 5 years, although I don't know if that includes premature cracking. They assigned me a File # and gave me a couple of dealers to take the moho in to have the tires inspected. Don't know as yet what Michelin will do, if anything. But I'm sure going to try. If they make good on them, fine. But if I end of having to replace them myself I'm switching to Goodyear. Goodyear at least gives a written four year warranty against premature cracking.
