Any tyre brands out there that don't crack ? These "mid range" Avons are only 5 years old - and have 5mm of tread left :





And this Dunlop is 9 years old. New tyres all round then...? What say PH ?

Ha ha, yes not my car belongs to OH

She does some miles but doesn’t exactly push it to 9/10s.

I couldn’t believe it, I’ve never needed to replace tyres before 2mm in my life, and they certainly don’t last anything like five years smile

She won’t be buying any more Avons...

This seems to happen more and more in recent years, had a couple of Pirelli's that started cracking even though they wasn't that old. Are the tyre companies up to something?
