We fishtailed back and forth, but always kept control. No one on the road with us. Dumped nearly everything on the floor from the kitchen and bathroom. The TV swung out and broke the Velcro strap. We were able to drive about 45 minutes to the next town for an emergency tire change. We got all new tires in Kerrville, TX at Discount Tires. In my opinion, the Trailer King tires we got should not have passed inspection. It reminded me of the Bridgestone/Firestone debacle about twenty years ago. It is not an uncommon practice to replace the "China Bombs" immediately with an upgraded tire.
