If a high mileage tire gets old and even harder it would more resemble driving on wood compared to rubber.

As corner stone implies...it cold have to do with the front suspension/alignment. Does this happen while just casually driving or is it more when you are driving rather quick and hard into the corners.

And, are the tires just screeching on corners are you actually sliding/pushing the front end straight when it should be turning?
Yes the back tyres are the same and I just
noticed it when I drive carefully round corners. It’s no problem when I accelerate straight, but I can feel it “glide” when I hit the brakes. Sounds like it’s to old, doesn’t it?
