What if it was a front tire?
 Fair question.....
  Having made a living with SRW and drw LDTs pulling 15k to 22k GN/pintle trailers or 10k-12k bumper pull enclosed trailers I had my share of actual blowouts on both size trucks....front and rear.
  A actual blowout or run flat on the rear of either truck simply wasn't that big of a deal even with a heavy fully loaded 22k gross weight trailer pushing the back end around. Good trailer braking kept the combo going straight till shutdown.
 Front tire blowout ???  Now that is serious with a heavy trailer back there pushing the back of the truck one way then another even with good trailer braking.
