Ah - knowledge is power eh! - Thanks for your advice, I wont start hunting new tyres for a few months now then.

Thats really interesting - So I could effectively keep using them? Just afraid that they would increase the chances of a "blowout".

Morning, Just thought I would post in here as an existing member pointed me towards the forum. Basically, I purchased my car back in February this year. It was advertised with a full MOT - as I was looking through the cars history I noticed that before it passed the MOT (In early Feb) it failed on "Cracks on all tyres". Therefore all four tyres were replaced to pass the MOT - they still look like new and I have the invoice for them. - I can only presume they were the same tyre brand / model that was fitted previously. I was under the car the other day inspecting the tyres - two of them have cracked (see the below picture) - this is after 3,500 miles of driving. They are budget tyres - and pretty much the cheapest option for this tyre size - what I am wondering is - is it something Im neglecting to do or just a bad design? The tyre dimensions are 235/35/19 - I keep them at 35psi all round (2002 Audi A4 Avant) - tracking is fine, wear is even across the tyre & its not rubbing. Going to replace them all for some Maxxis MAZ1's. Thanks.
