Did you feal or hear the tire suddenly blow? Could it have gone flat shortly after leaving the house and then ran flat for fifteen miles causing the tire to fall apart?
I ask because the TT I just bought has one year old Towmax PowerKing tires, 235/80R16 load range E tires, rated at 3,520#. My TT has a GVW of only 10,000# so I have 4,000# of lee way.
I just put 3,000 miles on them on not the best of roadways that included a fair amount of gravel. I've gone over them and don't see any problems with them.

Tire went off like a shotgun. Heard it before I felt it. My daughter was driving behind me at the time, she said everything looked fine, then there was a second of smoke, then bang she blew.
If I have problems with mine, I think I'll get some Sailuns shipped up from the States or find someone coming through to bring them up.
