    Tires cracked only on inside

    Well I went to check brakes and hubs today ant stumbled on to my tire having cracks in it. So I did what most would do and looked at the other three and they all have cracks/splits on the inside side wall only. Some are just cracked/split but a couple spots have a flap of rubber down to the belt on them. I have never seen one do that let alone all 4. Anyone have any clue as to what might have happened?

    I've seen it before a handful of times. Not sure why it happens. Especially only on the inside. Unless the sidewall design is different on the inside of the tire than it is on the outside. Then it's probably a fault in the mold process. I'm talkin about the crack around the bead of the tire. But as to why it happens. I have no idea LOL. If it wasnt a mud tire you could prob get with your tire shop and get a new set prorated. But def a long shot with a mud tire. But then again nothing against cooper. But had a car at a previous job keep coming in because the tires bead would unseat. After the third tire did it they got different tires LOL. But that issue I believe was caused by who installed them.

    Yeah my bigger thing is it happened to all 4 tires on the inside. just seems like there is something to it. One tire I'd say I ran something over but not all 4. FYI that is a 3/4 nut for reference. Still a good bit of tread left

    This to me looks like it's something from driving over. Scrap the sidewall and tore. I have done this on tires and have made very similar cracks.
    Have you offroaded or off trails before. You dont have to drive rough but more drive over something unseen. If you tow. I wouldn't tow without replacing. If you truly got 60k. From that tire you are likely the only one. That tire is not known for decent wear.

    Not any offroading to say. Some mud in a driveway but mostly highway miles. 100 miles a day for work and we take my truck for vacation and holidays. Even with running over something what are the odds of getting all 4 tires? And I had the rotated 3 months ago and the tire shop didn't mention anything about them being messed up. Going to call Cooper tomorrow and see what they have to say. And yes Installed 2/17 @73k and I have 134k as of today
