Last MOT, the tested pointed them out to me.
Michelins do that, too, now. I had to replace all 4 of my Primacy all-season tires last fall. Lots of tread and all cracked in the grooves. It seems it is being caused in tires made in Europe because of the EU eco rules affecting the manufacturing process and chemicals used.
