Default Polk Audio Speakers

Has anyone had any problems with their polk speakers? I have a set of DB651's in my truck, I had a funny sound come from my right speaker so I took the cover off the door and looked and the rubber surround is split about 2 to 3 inches. They still sound great except the funny noise, it has a buzzing sound. I bought them from Amazon just cant remember when.
I was going to get the MM651's but now I dont know>

usually only a couple of things will cause this.. being overdriven (too much power) or dry rotting (this is especially true in a car door)

if you log into amazon you can report on any orders you made.. that might help for warranty...

I'll give it a shot never know. I was figuring it to be dry rot, just my luck.
Thanks
Is there anything I can put on the surrounds that will keep them from dry rotting?
