This is a serious problem in trailers right now. The number of blowout threads on the rv.net fora is downright scary. Now I'm wondering if I should have spent the $400 that I paid on the PressurePro and just got a new set of tires.

My wife was following behind me and called me and said that something black just flew off and she was going to turn around and check it. I looked back in the driver side mirror and actually saw the tire explode. It sounded like a gunshot. The trailer shook once or twice and the Tundra shook once and steadied itself out. I had never had a blowout before and I was always scared about one, but I feel a lot better now that I know how the Tundra and trailer will react. I can honestly say that this is the best tow vehicle that I have ever had out of all the Chevy's and Fords I towed with.
