I HAVE 4 GT RADIAL CHAMPIRO TOURING AS 205/60R-16. THEY HAVE ALL FORMED LARGE CRACKS ALONG THE LOWER SIDEWALL. THE TIRES WERE INSTALLED 1.5 YEARS AGO. I FEEL THAT THESE TIRES ARE UNSAFE AND AT RISK FOR A BLOWOUT. I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THESE TIRES. THE DOT # IS Y9J5CRVX4115 ON ALL 4 TIRES. THESE ARE STRUCTURAL CRACKS NOT COSMETIC.

GT radial champiro winterpro HP: what the numbers tell you
Manufacturer treadwear data for the Champiro Winterpro HP is not publicly listed. This is common for OEM-only or track-day tires that don't carry a US treadwear warranty. No mileage warranty is published for this tire, which is typical for performance summer and track-day rubber where the manufacturer doesn't make wear-life claims.
Cabin noise data for this tire is not published by the manufacturer. As a winter tire built for the truck-suv segment, the Champiro Winterpro HP is positioned against direct rivals within the same category. Comparing it to a tire in a different category (e.g. summer vs all-season) makes the spec sheet misleading because the design targets are not the same.
