that is some serious side wall defect. Is the tire dried out and cracked or was it molded badly ?

when you look carefully to the pictures, it seems that there is a kind of "scratch" due to air bubbles on the side on the tyre, this could be due to a bad injection of the plastic in the mould, which means there is no enough plastic for the tyre and a fatigue crack appears hence the crack
Like electricity, Playmobil are essential for humanity
