I bought some BF Goodrich Drag Radials back in 08 and they been in my dads garage unmounted never used (still have the packing tag on them). My DRs are shot so I went to put these on and in between the thread they have cracks (dry rot) :tdown: Sucks because they are $171 a tire. Do you think the manufacturer will replace them or I’m I shit out of luck .

shit out of luck. Always keep tires stored in plastic bags and up off the floor.

I keep new tires in the house. Currently my mudders for my jeep, and my slicks are in the spare room on a blanket.

I couldn’t deal with the smell of rubber. I can barely transport tires to the mounting place in my car let alone have them in the house. [/notarealcarguyrant]
