we did not have a bad accident. I contacted the tire dealer, tireco inc., 500 W. 190Th st., Gardena, ca 90248, tel. (310) 604-8760 And reported the tire failure. The tires at this time had less than 2000 miles on them. I had my rv repaired and I sent the damaged tires to tireco inc. So that they could inspect them and reimburse me for the new set of tires I bought to replace the defective set of tires that were damaged. I sent the damaged tires to them on august21, 2008 and I am still waiting for them to reimburse me for the tires I bought. I would like to know from you the load rating of this tire. My rv's weight is 15,700 lbs and has two (2) axles. I examined two of the remaining tires from the original set of four and found that the rubber plys inside of the tire were "separated" so they were ready to "blowout" also. I need to know if this particular tire were the correct tires for my rv or whether the tires were overloaded to begin with. Thank you for your help. If you need more information please reply. *Tr

tires, and they said to ship them all back for evaluation. I replaced all five, including the spare, at a cost of over $1100.00. I just received a check for them for $171.22, And their explanation was "four tires were used, one was defect", and will only replace the one that was "defect". They said they will ship the other four back to me, but I didn't think to ask who would pay the shipping. I have no way to prove the other four were defective, nor can I confirm the originals are being returned, rather than substitutes. I feel that I have been "taken" all the way around. *Tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 kzrv escalade trailer. The axles were 7000-pound axles and the trailer weighed 16,000 pounds. The axles were overrated. The dealer stated that the axle could be used for this vehicle. The mechanic changed the axles and noticed the bushings were worn out. The bushings were not replaced. The trailer did not have an odometer. Therefore; there was no mileage on the vehicle. *Ak
