Those aren't cracks.
I posted photos similar to yours two days after I brought my 18 1LE home.
Members here nailed me, they slapped me and treated me like an orphaned stepchild.
Now that I look back, I deserved it. lol
My 1LE is stored out in my unheated garage as I'm typing this. This will be my second season of cold winter storage. Hopefully I won't see any cracks come spring.
Just don't move the car around in storage until spring. Don't worry about the tires getting flat spots. It doesn't happen today.
Especially with the hard as F rubber compound on these track tires.
