Tire Warranty

[ItBmine]

Anyone know if there is warranty on the Continental Trac Chief R4's that come on the B series?
I just noticed the sidewalls on my fronts are already all cracked. It is just turning one year old.
I wouldn't think they should be cracking like that already. It is stored indoors and they are always at 35 psi as per sidewall spec.

Look on the sidewall of the tire next to the bead. You should find a 4 digit number on it. the first two digits are the week it was made. The last two are the year it was made. Tired degrade just sitting in a warehouse. I got a new set of 12.4 X 24 Titans that did the same thing in less then six mths. I would go back to the dealer.

I read your thread and ran over to check the tires on my B3030. The tractor is 9 years old and still not one crack anywhere. I agree with olthumpa, something's wasn't right when they were manufactured

Thanks for the date info. I'll check tomorrow. Since it was just the fronts I was wondering if maybe they were getting overloaded doing loader work? Like I said, I always check my pressures.

They're not causing any problems, but been thinking of trading for a new B2601 or 2650 and I don't want to loose any value over that.

Well I can say Carlisle is a first class company and stand behind their products.
I emailed them just to ask if there was any warranty and that I haven't contacted my dealer yet. They asked me to send pics and emailed me back and said new tires being shipped to my house.
