I know FL can be a harsh environment. I've had car tires dry rot before they reached the end of their tread life.
Isn't that from the salty humid air? I agree, I would probably double bag them in that area.

But the largest cause for cracked tires is low tire pressure and sitting! add to that balmy Florida weather and you got a recipe for cracked tires. But on car tires their safe to drive on cracked as long as the cracks don't expose the cords.
