Winter tires and true 4 season tires with the mountain snowflake have a second set of wear indicators to show when there is not enough tread left to be safe in winter conditions.
If you have the severe winter mountain snowflake on these tires I am pretty sure that is what this vertical line is.
Yes, they are all season tires but have the winter mountain snowflake. i've not seen a wear indicaor like that before..
Thanks.
It's to tell you when they no longer meet snow-tire performance specs, even though they are legal for non-snow conditions.
BTW - check your door placard. 80 psi is too high from the front tires if you're running that psi all the way around.

Oh I just now saw you’re in Canada. There may be a different phone and email for you.
I was on the .com address, I think Cooper in Canada has a .ca address.
EDIT:: It’s the same contact info Cooper Canada
Looks like they have a 65,000 mile / 105,000 km warranty? Maybe you’ll get a little adjustment in price? Won’t hurt to ask.

They look pretty well worn down. I’d measure the thread depth, I have a tire thread depth checker. Or you can take it to a reputable tire shop and have them measure it.
Another photo from a 45-ish degree angle would show a better view of the remaining thread depth.
Or you can call Cooper Tire at 800 854 6288, or email the pic to cooperinfo@coopertire.com and see what they have to say.
However I think it’s definitely time to replace them. Good luck to you.
