Carlisle tire 225/75/r15 d - I purchased the tires 05/09 and had 2,000 miles on them prior to leaving for vacation on 06/11/10. I checked the tire pressure on 06/10/10 and inflated to 65psi. Approximately 150 miles into my trip the left front tire exploded and I immediately pulled off to the burm on the left side of the interstate. The tire tore off my fender, dented the side of the camper, and ripped the floor covering and insulation out. I replaced the wheel with my spare and inspected my tires and proceeded to continue on my trip. I traveled approximately 150 to 200 additional miles then the right front tire went flat. The tread came loose from the sidewalls. The tire damaged the right fender, floor covering, and insulation.
