Sidewall split after 3 months / 500 miles.
Normal summertime riding on asphalt. Lucky I was close to home. I am a life-long bicycler, never had this happen. Any warranty for my 25 bucks? I am not happy. . Why are verified user "terms of service" and "Michelin's terms and conditions" not available for me to read before I am forced to agree to them?

My tires are cracking - at tread and near wire bead - after less than 2 years.
Put these Proteks on my older mountain bike that I use almost exclusively to go to and from the gym - average of 6 miles per week. Noticed this week that there are multiple cracks; some 1 to 2 cm long; in both tires on the sidewalls near the tread and the wire bead. Am 195 lbs and following the recommended psi [running at 70 to 75 psi]. Also run the same pressure on my Conti Contacts on my Trek Verve and those are fine after almost 2 years & 1500 miles. Both bikes are garaged. Even the old Kenda knobbies that were originally on this old mountain bike did not have any large cracks when I replaced them. Are these Proteks defective or just poorly constructed? Have contacted the dealer that I'd purchased these from, sent images, & have requested replacements [preferably with another brand].

Great ride
Easy to install. Mine came on perfectly round. I use about 4 bars of pressure, giving me a comfortable ride with acceptable handling also on unpaved roads.
