What owners report
I EXPERIENCED TWO TREAD SEPARATIONS ON TOW MAX STR TRAILER TIRES, ST235 80R16 LOAD RANGE E. ONE FAILURE OCCURRED FIVE MINUTES AFTER ENTERING THE FREEWAY ON THE LEFT FORWARD TIRE. THIS TIRE WAS REMOVED AND THE SPARE WAS INSTALLED. APPROXIMATELY TWO HOURS ALTER AND 110 MILES DOWN THE ROAD I EXPERIENCED A VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TREAD SEPARATION FAILURE ON THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. ALL TIRES ON THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN VISUALLY INSPECTED THAT MORNING AND SHOWED NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF DISTRESS, TIRE PRESSURE WAS VERIFIED COLD WITH A TIRE PRESSURE GATE TO BE 80 PSI. AFTER THE FIRST FAILURE THE REMAINING THREE TIRES WERE EXAMINED AND PRESSURE WAS VERIFIED, AT THIS TIME THE REMAINING TIRES ALSO SHOWED NO VISI
TRAVELING AT ABOUT 60 TO 65 MPH ON NEVADA HIGHWAY 93, 20 MILES SOUTH OF CALIENTE, NV THE RIGHT FRONT TANDEM TIRE OF THE FIFTH WHEEL TRAILER HAD A BLOWOUT CAUSING BODY DAMAGE AND THE STEEL BELTS OF THE BLOWN TIRE WHIPPED THE SIDE WALLS OF THE REAR TIRE CAUSING IT TO GO FLAT ALSO. MY CONCERN IS THE MANNER IN WHICH THIS TIRE BLEW OUT AND THE PERPENDICULAR SPLIT ACROSS THE TIRE AND THE WAY THIS TIRE WENT TO PIECES. THIS DOESN'T SEEM NORMAL TO ME AND IN THE 45 + YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND I HAVE POSSESSED A CDL LICENSE BEFORE, I HAVE DEALT WITH PROBABLY A DOZEN TIRE BLOW OUTS WITH EQUIPMENT LOADED ON TRAILERS, ON THE TRACTOR AND ON PERSONAL TRUCKS, CARS, MOTORHOMES AND TRAILERS. LUCKILY
