This is why trailer tires need to run the max sidewall inflation all the time. Increased inflation will decrease the slip angle needed to generate the cornering force so increasing the inflation will also decrease the shear internal to the tire at the interface between the belt edges and should also decrease the tendancy to peal the belts off the carcass.
This is another excellent piece of information from this thread, given the number of people who have peeled their tread right off. More new information brought to the table.
