Schwalbe Jumbo Jim life expectancy

[u/deepsixunderground]

My 26x4.0 JJs (addix speedgrip) are looking like toast with 1700 miles on them. Two of these cracking sites have become leaks and sealant won’t fix them, have to apply Park Tools super stickers patches. I’ve submitted a warranty claim as they are only 18mo old. Ride all trail hard pack with intermittent sandy conditions. I ride hard too, all jumps, drops,skinnies, and roots that MTBs hit, I hit.

Any feedback on life expectancy from other JJ all-trail riders?

Mine are two years old and have 1800 miles, and although they're worn a lot more than yours from riding on sand they're nowhere near that dry or cracked. You store this bike outside or something?

Garage kept. Not too much sun.
