Renault espace mk3 Tires

Fitted these as a full set approx 3 years ago, found them very good in wet or dry, but can be made to slip very easily in the wet if getting away from a junction in a fairly spirited style, never driven them on the limit in the wet, but they've always felt very secure unlike the ZV3' previously fitted which were on the skittish side,
Wear has been very good with at least another 10K miles life remaining in them, BUT, and in this case a VERY BIG But, ALL FOUR TYRES have developed Very Serious and dangerous defects with mass area cracking on the Tire walls, plus cracked close to the wheel rims as well as in all of the roots between the tread blocks,
Two of the tires started deflating regularly, which the Tire fitter said was due to porous alloys and not the tires, however having to use an emergency leak sealer to get me home one day revealed a considerable number of spots of the sealer leaking out of the Tire wall,
The defects in all of the tires is now extremely bad, possibly dangerous and requiring renewal of all 4x tires well before they were due, I won't be fitting ZV5's again and because of the cracking can't recommend them to anyone,
Depending upon the response from Avon and the company that fitted, them, the new tires may not be Avon replacements.

I've had these on my Mark 3 diesel Renault Espace for the past 10000 miles. I chose these because they seemed to have the best review of any budget tire in the price range. I have been going on country lanes and up and down the M20. The car has always behaved excellently - some noise on the motorway (depending on the road surface) but I would recommend them to anyone.
