another tire story

Our Keystone Avalanche will be 2 years old to Us in July but the towmax china bomb tires celibrated a 3rd birthday in febuary.anyway I have always kept air pressure in check and have only towed about 1000 miles.on the way to last outing, on a two lane road at 60 mph I here a load pop and see tire smoke at the left rear.The tire tread had partially seperated and tire explosion had occured.Ireally expected this but maybe another year or two down the road.had minimal damage and am replacing with BFGOODRICH commercial TAs they should be passed the recall issues by now and or made in the USA.
  • Why not spend a little more and install Bridgestone Duravis R250 steel ply carcass tires? There us a lot of peace of mind knowing you have one of the best. Chris
