1988 Saab 900S, 5spd, 170K miles
My 900 has 195/65-15 Michelin Weatherwise tires with good tread. They were on the car when I bought it 2 months ago. I looked at the DOT code (1203) and see that they are 5-1/2 years old.
1-I notice very light spider web cracking in some of the sidewalls. What causes that?
2-One tire is noticably out of round when you spin it with the car jacked up so I moved it to the back. What causes that out of round condition, improper mounting or from driving it out of balance?
3-If I decide to replace these, should I continue with Michelin?
Your input on this is greatly appreciated!
