Hi,

Has anyone experienced this on their 07? Outside of my front two tires (outermost strip of tread) is cracekd as if it was old rubber.
Any ideas? goodyear tires, US model XLS.

 

i have the 07 xls with goodyears as well.

i saw the edges "cracking" also.

you need to rotate tires front to back every 5K miles.

when the tires are on the front i run them at 40 psi to "stay off of the edges"
.......rears are at 35 psi.

i have 23K miles on them and i estimate i will get another 5-7K miles out of them.

 

THANKS,

I ONLY HAVE 7K miles on the vehicle now, i guess its about time. But I have never seen that before on any of the cars I owned.
I had goodyears on my Mazda 3 GT, they only lasted 30k miles - how sad

 

funny i have that crack on my tire too,
WHY I HAVE ALL THE PROBLEM THAT EVERYBODY HAVE ON MINE :'(

 

 

Tires that are only 2 years old should not have cracks regardless of miles on them. Cracking is an indication of tires drying out. I would go to a Goodyear dealer in your town and complain.

 

Somebody know that is the Mistubishi Waranty policy for factory tire yokohama ?
i got my car since end December 2007, now in July 2008 i got that crack too,

 

I believe the mitsu owner's manual says tires are covered by the tire manufacture. I would take it to the local Yoko dealer for the cracks.Again I don't think cracks on 2 year old tires is normal. I wonder if there may be some defect in the compound used to make them.

 

Why was my post deleted? I am getting extremely angry now.
