Hey All - Well after 3 years of reading these forums it's finally my turn! Blew out driver's side. I still had Factory Goodyear tires. I was going to replace them this fall - figured 3 years was enough for them.

As far as I can tell we have no damage underneath but I will investigate further when I have some time. Sitting on the highway in 106 degrees wasn't very fun. Called Good Sam, they put on the spare, and I was on my way again in an hour 15 mins! Very nice CA Hwy Patrolman kept the nuts from hitting us. I was impressed that I had no sway or other motion from the trailmanor. I was going about 57, CA speed limit is 55.

So now I need to read up on the current advice on the best tires and get them ordered. This was the last trip unitl September so I have some time.
