Time for new tires???
I just noticed this today when washing my car. they didn't look like that when i rotated them 3k miles ago and its just the fronts. is this an alignment issue or just a tire issue. i was hoping to make it through the winter with these tires but should i replace them now. oh and these are the stock dunlops with 33k on them and they still have quite a bit of tread left.

I would replace those weather cracked tires. They have served thier life and a set of tires will be alot cheaper than doing body work when one of them blow apart. get new tires... just my 2cents

Mirada GTX...yokohama subsidary...well, they make the low-profile tires, not sure about stock sizes if that's what you're running.
Been good for me thus far...hopefully I can run them this weekend up in ATL at the AutoX...well, if I DO decide to run the wagon at all.

Maybe give one of these places a buzz and inquire.
It's worth a shot atleast.

they don't have a 205/50/16 and they don't look to be much cheaper than the proxes or the neros. i think i'm going to go with the 195/50/16 proxes. they're 4.5 lbs a tire lighter than the 205/50/16 neros not to mention $30 a tire cheaper.
