It's called flash

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_(manufacturing)

It's part of molding process, just like all the little hairy things that stick out of brand new tires.


the owner did mention they had alignment problems so they bought 2 new tires and 2 other ones are few years older.

is this not due to poor alignment?


I don't know what you're referring to. photo is very low quality.

Looks like the casting mould joint. 

The tyre looks normal otherwise.

Good luck.

Nothing to worry about.  I always liked Cooper tires, just seem to be hard to find in my area.
