Here's an interesting new product coming to help reduce damage from tire blowouts. Looks like it will be available sometime this summer. Thoughts? https://rv-de-fender.com/lets-go/?referral=2df...

It says backing plate is 1/8" and arch is 14 guage. Although I don't know if that would be enough to hold up to a shredding tire. Also I don't know how it would work inside the wheel well of the RV as it would move up and down with the axle and wheel (not connected to the frame or body of the RV).
I would expect to have a mangled 1/8" backing plate and a twisted up 14 gauge sheet metal arch to remove after the blowout in addition to the normal plastic or thin gauge sheet metal wheel well, the plastic skirt, and possibly twisted up wiring, cracked plumbing etc.
