Discuss Cracked tile! Need advice!! in the America Tile Forum / Advice Board area at TilersForums.com.

I had ceramic tile installed and 6 months later I noticed cracks in about a dozen tiles. The cracks form 2 straight parallel lines 3 ft apart. The contracter says it is a high traffic area and the tile I chose was poor quality. The store says the tile is good quality and that it wasn't installed properly. Can anyone look at the picture and tell me what they think???
