The Nylon cap does not seem to have fixed the Blow Max and as we know Goodyear added the Nylon cap years ago and they still fail regularly.
Of interest the XPS Rib does not list a Nylon cap, however the R250 does. Rib has 3 steel belts and one steel carcass ply. R250 2 steel belts 1 Nylon ply and one steel carcass ply. Of interest the Duravis R500HD has two steel belts and a Nyon ply and two poly ply sidewall, where most poly ply LT's have a single carcass ply. The R500HD would make a great trailer tire, as it is a true commercial grade tire. Chris
