Patch for Tire Cracks in the rubber surface

I need a patch for the cracks of my BFGoodrich Tire.

It is about 5 years old with 20.000 miles used.

See links for pictures:

Thank you for advice.

you cannot repair a tire on the sidewall, only the contact patch. your tires are at risk of a blowout and your only option is to replace them

Tire industry says tires are only good for 5 or 6 years anyway. You have dry rot and should replace them soon.
Next time you could get lower milage rated performance tires.

I've had Toyo spectrums that were weather checked with 80% tread left.
