I bought a Branson 6530 new back in 2009 with R1 Titans. Got a couple thousand hours on them and keep the tractor out of the weather under a shed when not used. Rears have no cracks at all and tread is still 70% running some tough jobs in Houston Black Clay....mud or rocks depends on the moisture content..... Fronts about 50% have concentric semicircles around the center line of the tire where the lugs start. Had them (the circles) since new and have grown just slightly, not a problem other than you can see them. Lugs are hard and I think how much plasticizer used in the recipe determines the softness of the tread and resistance to cracking but fast to wear down....can't have your cake and eat it.
If you do a Google map of the Rome, Georgia main facility you can see piles of tire/wheel assemblies stacked out in the sun....I think that is how they have these little cracks on a tractor with zero hours. I understand they import tractor parts for lower import duties then install the tires in the US and maybe other things of which I am unaware.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
