2022 Keystone AvalancheWheels & tires

I have HiSpec ST235/80R16 tires on my Fifth wheel. Every time I tow my rig I fear the worst because of the tires. These tires according to the forums are notorious for catastrophic failure without notice. When they fail they take out whatever is above them such as slide outs. Why are rv companies putting on these Chinese Time Bombs? They should not be on the road what so ever because of how they can fail without notice. I have been lucky so far but I am having to fork out 1300 dollars for new tires from...

Hercules. Pull these tires off the road now and have rv companies reimburse owners for having to swap out the tires. Thank you. I am putting in today's date since the incident is yet to happen for me. I also only drive 55 to 59 mph when towing because I fear these tires will blow out on me. Fix this company.

tires before leaving four hours into the trip I was doing 65 mph, another tire a tow master completely shredded damaging our 5th wheel. I am waiting for tow master to examine the tire or at least what is left of it. I had to purchase another tire to continue the trip for peace of mind and safety. I am going to replace the other towmaster tires and intend to ask tow master to pay for the new tires as I feel they are unsafe and could cause serious property and personal damage even death.
