This is just a small sampling over the last four months from various Alpine owners with blowouts from Oracle Hispe 14 ply tires installed from the factory

These all appear to be Polyester body tires not "Commercial Grade" steel body tires as the Sailun S637 LRG is. Ya think that might be part of the problem?
