I OWN A 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA. LAST WEEK WHILE VIEWING A MAXIMA FORUM, I NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR OEM GOODYEAR RSA DEVELOPING SIDEWALL CRACKS. AFTER INSPECTING MY VEHICEL, I NOTICED TWO 2' CRACKS ON THE SIDEWALL. I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO SEARS TIRE CENTER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR STRAIGHT HOME AND TO PARK IT UNTIL THE TIRES WERE REPLACED. THEY FOUND MAJOR CRACKS IN THREE OF THE TIRES. THESE TIRES ONLY HAVE 20,000 MILES ON THEM AND I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG THE CRACKS WERE THERE. *AK
