I've had two...yes two...2... blowouts....45 days apart. About $6K worth of damage altogether....NOT including the tires. The first was due to old tires (about 9 years) that were on the coach when I bought it. The second was a faulty BRAND NEW tire, one of the 5 new ones that were purchased after the first blowout, although the manufacturer didn't admit fault, they paid the claim.
I really don't care what they look like...at 7 years they are going to be replaced...PERIOD!
Okay..back to the regularly scheduled programming.... ;-)
