    Checking on 3 year old tires. I'll wager that the distributor didn't store them properly prior to sale.

    That doesn't look like checking to me. It looks like tread separating from the carcass.

    Of course we don't know if the owner rode at 100MPH with 10PSI in them either.

    Thats from 09, but still a good reminder for everyone to keep an eye on your tires.
