Good thread Pitbull....
I recently had a blowout on one of my work trucks that i had just put new tires on. The thing just threw the tread and completely came apart in an instant, while i was pulling my skidsteer running 70 down the highway. Luckily it was a back tire that blew. The tires were new, but instead of buying them at a big tire dealer, i bought em at a local shop.
That tire was either defective or had been on the shelf for years.
I'm in the concrete business, and am always pulling trailers and equipment, and my work trucks all have generators and air compressors and plug kits. We can fix a tire on the side of the road and limp home if it isn't blown.
Blown tires on your truck flat out sucks if your pulling equipment...
