The RV industry clams they are producing over 600,000 units annually. If you figure 4 tires per vehicle as average, that amounts to 2,400,000 tires. A lot of the tire failures we read about on this and other forums are REPEATE posts covering many years. A half dozen or so repeat posters can skew the true failure rate and fellow members judgement. Everything has risks and failure rates, uncovering these risks and failure rates is the real challenge. One needs to know the true numbers to make intelligent decisions.

It is my belief that the industry is improving the tire issue by providing better written documentation on tire care and also demanding a better tire. I may be wrong, time will tell. Like I have stated before the Provider Tires that came on my 2017 are "M" speed rated @ 81MPH. that is an improvement. Are there better tires to be had, absolutely. I would like to see Disc Brakes and upgraded tires as an option on all unites over 10,000 lb GVW.
