I had a new Metzler 880 installed on the rear wheel 07/06. After several trips and 2500 miles I noticed 3 areas with cracks in the tread groove area. I took it to the selling dealer and he seemed to think that it was not a problem. I have been monitoring the cracks for progression and they don't seem to be getting any bigger. The tire has a total of 4500 miles on it now. The mfg. date is 3505. We are planning some long trips this spring/summer and I'am concerned with this tire. My 'gut' tells me something bad is going to happen eventually with this condition and the tire should be replaced.
Anybody had similar experience with this area for cracks?
