Hi everyone! I bough Vittorio Zaffiro not long ago. They were brand new in July, and by September I noticed numerous cracks in the tire surface. They didn't even last half a season. Before that, I had Decathlon tires—the same fate. But what's interesting is that on the second bike the Schwable feel great for the third season with identical use and identical storage of the bike.
I've also seen many posts on this sub that even top-end Conti tires also crack quickly. I never leave my bike in direct sunlight, except when I'm riding it in hot weather. I keep the tire pressure at the level indicated on the tires. So, the question is, what could be causing such rapid tire wear? Are there any tire care products?

You probably store them or use them in places with high ozone.
And yes, the Continental tyres are quite prone to damage from ozone and uv.
