  • Marks on old tires

    I had some old worn tire that were replaced last week with new ones. All 4 of the tires had a slice mark going around the whole tire like someone taking a knife too it just off the middle part of the tread same area on all 4 tires. (Not 1 non stop slice, but intermittent the whole way around on all 4's.) What caused this? They were pretty worn tires way past the mileage its suppose to last. Alot of cracking in the tread areas as well.

    If it were on the sidewall of the tire, I'd say the tires were too wide and getting cut by rubbing the fender lip. But if its on the actual tread, I have no idea.

        No, and no. On the actual tread. Probably just and old cracking tire ready to split in half. lol
