I am going to have my Firehawk Indy’s put back on this week. While taking them out of storage I noticed that the sidewall feels pretty dry and a little bumpy. Inside sidewall doesn’t seem to have the same texture.

Wondering if this is:
A) Normal
B) Dried out due to tire shine that I use every month or so and that they need to be replaced.

Tires have about 8/32 left on them.

Tire shine products are mostly not great for the tires and can dry them out. Tires aren't supposed to be shiny.

^^^Yup, never have used them, and never will.

Not a fan of the 'pimped' look I guess.
