It's rare to hear about a GY "G" tire blow out since mid 07 date code. Many people think it's the tires fault but after examination most of the time it's road hazard.
The post 07 GY "G" tires have an excellent record as has the new ENDURANCE tire that has been on the market for two years.
Only issue with the GY "H" is they had center tread separation/loss on some with 15 date code.
The one I had tread loss I had checked the temp 10 minutes before. So no notice based on heat. The tire went another 50 miles to camp. Went to local GY next aM and they replaced it. Back on the road with a couple hours time loss.
