Small crack on tyre

[Kiwi]

I have a small (3 cm) crack at the edge of my rear tyre. The tyres are only abt 6 mths old. Should I be concerned? What can I do about it?

 

Thanks!

if the crack is at the sidewall, it is wise to change it. normally for a tyre..if it burst..it would be thru the sidewall coz it is the weakest part of the tyre and increase of pressure would cause the tyre to expand in that direction

 

It is not worth the risk for the cost of your car and even worst your life.

my 2 cents of advice..

Don't wait, change the tyre....your life is worth more than the tyre...

do you have a low profile tire you may havu underfilled that is why u have the crack. Better change ASAP
