I've seen it before, but mostly with red ones. Use doesn't kill them, just time.

I cant remember brand, guess ill have a look at some super pro to replace. Not worth the effort trying to chase them up from the original supplier....

I've had blue ones in my car do the exact same thing with less than 8000 kms, If the car did not drive better with them I would of stuck with the rubber. It was a very expensive exercise changing them all over again, set at a time.
