The rubber compound has hardened, every time they heat cycle those cracks'll get a little bit deeper until the tread starts to flake away in strips or the tyre starts loosing air.
That tyre is the one that the wheels came with, I only bought 2 PW's for the front ones. Probably been on there since '04 when the car they came off was made lol......
