What part of "less than 3 years old with less than 10,000 miles" don't you understand?
The cause of the tread separation was determined by TireCo themselves and they admitted the Mission tires had been defective and provided a whole new set of 5 ST tires, "Freestars", free of charge, which were equally bad and they also failed within three years and less than 10,000 miles. The air gauge used was calibrated against a known good gauge from a tire store that had been calibrated professionally. Now try to blow holes in that. BTW, the same gauge is being used on the LT tires that are now installed on the same 5th wheel. No more problems. No more smoke and mirrors. Your phony argument does not hold water. ST tires in this weight range do not stand up. Admittedly only a personal sample of two sets but 100's of other 5th wheel owners have reported similar results with ST tires. Would a two by four across your forehead make a difference?
Caution-thread closing ahead!
What when a bit of knowledge about the quality of a ST tire is posted it becomes time to close the thread? Chris
