See photos -- these tires are less than a year old and the sidewalls seem to be breaking where they touch the rim. Just a cosmetic issue or am I risking a blow-out? Thanks!

Throwing some guesstimated numbers into SILCA's tyre pressure calculator, it seems you should be running them somewhere around 27/28 PSI. 3 PSI seems dangerously low.
Sorry, that was a typo! 30psi is what I meant to write.
