Tire size was ST 205 / 75 R 15. This tire experienced a significant belt separation failure that I fortunately noticed before departing our campsite. While doing a walk around inspection before departure, I noticed a severe tread deformity in the front passenger side tire on our camper. The tires were cold and the ambient air temperature was in the low 60's. Before removing the tire and wheel from the trailer, I checked the tire pressure on all 4 tires, and all were within 2 psi of the recommended 65 psi cold pressure, including the failing tire. I removed the wheel and tire assembly and deflated it for safety, and then took it to a local tires shop to replace the tire. They diagnosed it as belt separation and further stated that it would have likely failed with a blowout within a few miles if I hadn't caught it. The tire had an estimated 15,000 miles on it at the time, but had been professionally repaired for a screw puncture approximately 7,000 miles earlier.

ST 225/75R15 One driver side tire blew in May/2025 which caused extensive damage to the RV floor and sidewall. I replaced and did not file a claim. My family was in the tow vehicle when the blowout occurred. Debris was thrown across the highway and I had no room on the side of the highway to change the tire. Police called. Yesterday July 14/2025, the spare tire blew up all on its own while at a campground. It was on the back of the camper not being used. The spare tire cover was destroyed. Neighbors thought a propane tank exploded. Anybody walking by could have been seriously injured. I did a search and found a recall for these tires.

Castle Rock ST225/75r15 Was traveling with a 2021 Forest River RV and had a rapid loss of tire pressure and complete tread separation. Tires were at the proper pressure and driving below the speed rating of 70 mph. Incident occurred about an hour into trip, but less than 15 minutes after a stop and check of tires. Even a flat or picking up something in the road should not cause a full scale tread separation. These are just poorly made tires. No symptoms of problems, just a cheap tire.

Shortly after buying the camper used in April of 2024 on the way home I had a tire blow out going about 60-65 miles. Date code of tire is 1520. The tire tread looked good and confirmed correct amount of tire psi before leaving the dealership with salesman. While camper was parked, resting on 2x6 boards, not sitting directly on the ground. Where the tire was touching the board the tread completely split open. Date code also 1520.
