Exactly.
I've been lucky enough to have never been pulled over or inspected. I think I've only ever had to pull into a scale twice in my life.
Is this cracking bad enough to cause a blowout? Steer tires.

Tires are cheap compared to all the damage blowouts can cause. Especially on steers. Tell the boss man to quit being a cheapskate. Tires are what keep u making money

The next open scale you go into will shut you down if they look at your rig.Brettj3876 and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

Tread design in the pics look like a wide base tire. Like a 425.
$800 each or so depending on brand.
$25,000 for a new hood if those tires blow or some serious down time at the body shop getting everything fibreglassed back together and painted.
Or a truck upside down in the ditch.... -
U think that's oos ? I'm not sure on the rules for cracking like that and I don't think a dot man would look close enough, but who knows.. I definitely would've changed those tires awhile ago on my truck. I'm more concerned with a blowout taking out fenders and hood and/or getting in a wreck with a steer blowout.bumper Jack, Rubber duck kw, Shawn2130 and 2 others Thank this.

Those pics remind me of week old drive tires on a turned up Dick Simon truck.
