Tires with side cracks can be used for a short time. However, they should not be used on highways. For safety reasons, it is recommended to replace the tire. Relevant information about tire cracks is as follows: Impact of driving on highways with cracked tires: Cracks on the tire indicate that the tire has severely aged and cannot withstand prolonged high-speed driving, increasing the risk of accidents on highways. Tire mileage and age: Generally, the service life of a tire is 5-6 years, with a mileage of 70,000-80,000 kilometers. However, it should be noted that the lifespan is determined by whichever comes first, mileage or age.
