This involves new chinese junk tires being put on toy haulers. Keystone one of the largest manufacturer of rv's puts the cheapest tires on even after being told by many owners that tires are exploding going down the highway. Not just runlets where it falls apart but fully inflated where it goes off like a bomb my new unit has st235 80 16 12ply trailer king tires. These are the primary offenders I have less that 500 miles since delivery and at least 1 tire is showing signs of a side wall failure I talked to my dealer they filed a claim with keystone and key stone denied the claim saying that I have to contact the distributor tierce which is I believe the same company from a few years ago that had the same problem with cheap chinese tires that caused deaths. This need to be looked into.my information comes from one of many rv web sites where almost daily people talk about their cheap tires exploding causing thousands of dollars in damage. The tire company comes up with the same excuse you ran it flat. There is a big difference when a run flat comes apart and tears off a fender flare and a tire the explodes at full pressure and blows the entire skirting off the trailer. Im sure I don't have to tell you guys how to identify one from the other. Please help. ## VIN passed ## 2018 keystone carbon 387 ##
