Also very true ... But on this given occurrence I traveled approx 500 feet. so heat build up would be minimal
also given an approximate Loaded trailer weight of 10,500 lbs (9210lbs curb weight)... and a tongue wight of ~1520 lbs that leaves an approximate axle load of 9000 lbs / 4 tires is roughly 2250 per tire ... which leaves about a 1200 lbs of tolerance, so taking on the extra weight from a flat tire for ~500 feet shouldn't be an issue.
I talked with a Tire expert/engineer. and he tells me that the unflat tire is in fact taking a majority of the weight given the close proximity of the two tires ... vs. a car with a flat tire whos tires are spread out ... the opposite tire will become unloaded.

I have had 2 of these tires blow out in a distance of approximately 150 miles of each other.
The first blew and caused $2000 in damage to my 2011 Keystone Cougar 328QBS ... the second happened the day I picked up the trailer from the dealership from being repaired and caused another ~$2000 in damage ... Both tread separation/blowouts occurred with a 0111 DOT Code manufacturing date. both at a travel speed of approximately 60 mph ... both inflated to 80 PSI.
Dynamic Tire in Canada paid for the repairs on the first incident, But are acting like they are refusing to pay for the second incident.
I have found 31 reported cases on the NHTSA website regarding these Powerking Towmax tires
Has anybody else had issues with these tires

Here's some additional information I posted last week on the PowerKing failures I had... This is the 1st time I've tried a link so I hope it works.
