avons where new 5years ago,dates on all tyres are 2018,,,half warn but bad cracks in grooves and side wall,,,il sort out a picture soon...must say they are good from new,grippy and no tyre noises...i put it either too bad batch of tyres or they dried out to much in the heat....one side (passengers) gets baked by the sun when on driveway.worse side for both tyres........but it happens,learn and move on

I put two Avon ZV7 tyres on my Rover in late 2020 and they need replacing again due to cracks. I would avoid buying them again!tamtrucks wrote: ↑Thu Aug 24, 2023 11:10 pm avons where new 5years ago,dates on all tyres are 2018,,,half warn but bad cracks in grooves and side wall,,,il sort out a picture soon...must say they are good from new,grippy and no tyre noises...i put it either too bad batch of tyres or they dried out to much in the heat....one side (passengers) gets baked by the sun when on driveway.worse side for both tyres........but it happens,learn and move on
