The reason I asked for approx. build dates was to see if they some of the older tires made and if any of your newer tires have had any problems.
My Dad was told to run 110-105 be GY Tech Support and has had no problems and even wear since around 07.
The earlier tires that came with my Dad's HH Premier did have problems and GY Paid for damages 100% no questions asked.
now that you mention, the failures were with tires that would have been made sometime in late '06 .... our camper came with Load Range E Kenda Loadstars .... they were horrible tires and we went through 6 of them in less than 8 months .... now that you have me thinking about it, I do recall being told back when we were having the problems with the G614's that there had been some tires sabotaged during a strike at the plant where they were made .... have no clue if ours was involved with that or not

The GY G tires that came on our 07.5 Mobile Suites were made in early to mid 07. We never had a flat in 5 years and the spare never touched the ground. From what I have read the 07 and newer G tires have been very good. But the nay sayers will always say they have lots of problems and not mention that was 7 or more years ago. I put a set on our 02 Avion Platinum in early 07 and they looked great after 5 years when we traded for the MS.
