Keep an eye on your tires
This Trailer may of started this big fire! I don't know what kind tires had but in this heat check your pressures at every stop. If they are China bombs replace them!Blow out

Steel trailer wheels put on quite a spark shower show at nite on a run flat after the tire has worn/shreds away. On my nite runs that was the first tip off I had a tire issue on a trailer. Triaxles trailers don't give much input to the driver when one tire goes down on certain road surfaces other than smoke and flying rubber during daylite or huge spark show at nite.
yup they do, but if you look at that picture again all the rubber is still on the rim and it isnt bad, just looks flat. I would find it hard to believe that trailer caused anything.

I agree with this... I am NOT saying it couldn't happen because I have seen PLENTY of sparks by chains, rims, ect...
BUT in this case, the wheel LOOKS ( TO ME ) in tact.. with the rubber still there..
We may never know
