Was traveling north on I 95 in s.c. Just north of exit 68. I was traveling at 55 MPH when the right rear trailer tire blew damaging the skirting and possibly bent the axle on my montana 5th wheel trailer. The tire was a goodyear marathon st235x80r16e. The tire was manufactured in china, and wasn't even 3 years old. The tires that are made in china have been named china bombs because of all the tire failures. Hopefully things change.
