Yeah that's what I meant, BF Goodrich being owned by Michelin, Super SPort vs the Exaltos, same company similar tread and performance category, I was thinking same tire too.
ALL tires have those sidewall cracks with age, which is why you shouldn't use tires more than 10 years old. Sometimes they say as little as six years, but you can usually get away with 10 years.
I've had great luck with the Michelin Primacy MXV4, the best tire any amount of money can buy. Of COURSE they crack after 10 years, like any tire, but they still have plenty of tread remaining.
