Is it safe to run a slick with with sidewall cracks as long as inner tubes are installed?

I would say NO! Not worth the risk. If they are cracked, they are probably old and won't work worth a shit anyways. Think of the guy in the other lane as well.

What do the cracks look like you can always call Hoosier and send them a pic they are good for that Hoosiers seem to crack but can be superficial

They were both garage kept, but only one is cracking. Pictures are on my add in the for sale section. I'm not sure how old they are because I bought them used, but still hold air and the tread is still soft. If that one is no good, I will just throw it away.
