Yep. When I first noticed the small cracking I asked around, even on this site. Received mixed comments, but mainly that as long as the cracks weren't on the sidewalls, no big deal. I can thank Randy Richey, Les Richey's son, who told me he was worried about them and that I should be very careful.

It is what it is. I am only glad that as someone said early in the thread, I wasn't driving it at the time!

I will stack this on my "lessons learned" pile, which never ends.
