A TIRE BLEW OUT FROM BEAD TO BEAD. AFTER LOOKING AT ALL THE TIRES, FOUND THAT THE TIRES WERE WEARING OUT ON THE OUTSIDE EDGE. I HAVE ALWAYS USED THE MAX AIR PRESSURE WHICH IS 50 PSI. THE TIRES ARE CARLISLE 205-75-15 RADIAL TRAIL CRT LOAD RANGE C. GVW IS 7780. THE TIRES CARRY 1820 LBS EACH AT 50 PSI. THE TIRES COMBINED CARRY 7280 LBS. THIS IS LESS THAN THE 7780 LBS AND SOME OF IT IS DUE TO TONGUE WEIGHT I GUESS. MY TRAILER WAS NOT OVER LOADED. I CARRIED A FULL WATER TANK OF 38 GALLONS AND FOOD. SEEMS TO ME IT SHOULD HAVE COME WITH 225-75-15 LOAD RANGE D. I HAVE REPLACED THE TIRES WITH THESE NEW TIRES. WHAT A DIFFERENCE ON HOW THE TRAILER RUNS NOW. IT DOES NOT BOUNCE UP AND DOWN LIKE IT USE TO. I FEEL THEY SHOULD SELL A NEW TRAILER WITH THE PROPER SIZE AND LOAD RANGE. I HAD NO DAMAGE AND THANK GOD WE WERE NOT HURT. I WOULD HAVE GLADLY PAID 500.00 MORE FOR PROPER TIRES. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND I AM CONTACTING YOU BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT RETURN MY PHONE CALLS. THE DEALER BEST RV AND FOREST RIVER HAVE IGNORED THREE CALLS EACH. AFTER THE BLOW OUT I CHECKED ALL THE TIRES AGAIN FOR 50 PSI AND THEY WERE OKAY. THE TRAILER IS A 2007 ROCKWOOD SIGNATURE ULTRA LIGHT 8318 SS. WE LOVE THE TRAILER AND HAVE HAD NO ISSUES EXCEPT FOR THIS. THANK YOU JEFF CSILLAG. *TR
