Default Interco Super Swamper seperation

I bought five swamper ltbs of those two have started seperating while I was driving. Interco doesn't seem to care and said I should take it up with who I bought the tires from. Had anyone else had this happen to their tires? Or unfavorable dealings with Interco?

I ran some of their bias ply years ago with no issues. Do they show any signs of dry rot?

A little cracking. Yes, bias ply. I am shocked the lugs would start flying off. 34 inch tire.

Something else I have noticed are waves in the tires where it looks like the rubber didn't bond when it was poured. If that makes any sense.

How old are the tires? They honestly sound defective by what you are describing
