I have been running Dunlops on my vehicles going back to the mid-70s. Have always gotten close to 70,000 per set. Have never seen a sidewall crack.

I am wondering if the problem isn't related to the increased use of tire dressing and Armor All type tire products at home and the full service car washes. I am now using the Allback linseed oil wax on my tires and the interior and exterior of my truck. Blocks UV and seals interior vinyl to stop off-gassing. Big plus is now only have to do tires once or twice a year instead of every other wash.
