Description of the problem	I purchased four firehawk ss20 p215/60r14 rwl tires for my 89 cavalierz24 on 04/19/01 in jacksonville fl. At store #005770 or #018538-there are two numbers. They have been rotated twice since then. Recently, i have noticed that one of my tires is separating above the white letters in perfect bi-section of the mold outlets(the little rubber finger like thingies ha ha). To me this is odd. I was an aircraft mechanic for the navy and have never seen anything like this. As a couple of weeks have gone by the splitting has become worse and is starting on the other mold outlets. There is definitely something wrong with the integrity of the rubber composition on that tire for it to split or separate like that. The tire is dated for late 2000 and has a tread dept of 5 still left on it. *jb
