Default Need blowout advice - '98, 3023

Apparently I've joined the blowout club! The tire blew into the sink cabinet. My insurance is "comping" the damage, but I need to take it to a non-TM rv place for assessment. I'm in need of advice!

Some questions I have:
Any potential problems I should alert the non-TM folks to be aware of? I'm thinking the water heater and fridge need inspected and the cabinet needs rebuilt at the wheel well.

Should I upgrade to 15" tires? If so, what about the funky wheel covering over the tire and will the bigger tires fit in the wheel well.

Could the blowout have caused some shell adjustment issues? We had a hard time getting the front shell to latch in square pegs and the door was a challenge to keep adjusted correctly after the blowout.

We've owned the camper for two years. We use a w/d hitch, tow vehicle is Toyota Sequoia - loaded with three teasing kids and two dogs. This blowout happened after driving 680 miles, and just 35 miles from home!

Thanks for any tips!
