Last fall we picked up a new 5th wheel. We decided to camp near the dealership to make sure everything was working properly. The tires were checked at the dealer. We had 80 lbs. in each tire. When I got home one tire was down 26 lbs. I took it to a nearby tire shop and they discovered I had picked up a screw. Had I not checked the tire I could have possibly had a blowout. No fault of the tire or the manufacturer. I'm not defending the manufacturer as I would like to see better quality tires from the factory. I'm just offering another possible reason for the blowout.
Now I have a TPMS installed. In my opinion relatively cheap insurance.
