Here's what's happening: At 55 hours, my two rear 14-17.5 R4 tires have developed what looks like a cut on almost all the raised tread portion of the tire which goes around the middle of the tire on both tires. The "cut" does not follow the "seam" but is close to it and the "cut" zig-zags by about a quarter of an inch on each successive tread. The tire is not separating between the lugs but only the lugs. The cut is about a quarter to a half inch deep and you would initially think you ran over something or spun the wheels on something sharp except for the zig-zag and the fact it is identical on both tires. Tires are on a 4200. Not worried about warranty-it will be taken care of by Titan (I feel sure). Just wondered if it is only me.
