Grateful for opinions on the cracking here, OEM Nexens <3 years old with 8.5k miles on them:



They're fitted to the front axle of a Golf mainly used around town.

It grates that they don't match with the rears I replaced with Uniroyal Rainsports on the rear last year due to punctures, but I don't want to throw away good tyres for that reason alone. laugh
