Hey folks,

Figured everybody loves pictures, so here you go.

Tire on the left is a tread-separated BlowMax, 235/80/16.

Tire on the right is a brand new Goodyear Endurance, 235/85/16.

That's right, the Goodyear is actually a BIGGER tire, but the tread separation on the BlowMax is so severe, that it actually looks like it's larger than the Goodyear.

Second pic is of the inside of the BlowMax... speaks for itself.

We had a similar experience. Luckily caught before the blow.

Replace all Towmax ASAP!

Had one 235/85/16 blowout this past Sunday 3 miles from home. Not taking a chance I am replacing all of them by the end of the week.

Goodness gracious... they're so destructive when they go. Hope you didn't have any major damage!

Fortunately only damage was the wires breaking apart on level up when the belts hit it. Luckily the tire didn't blow completely apart.

I wasn't taking any chances. My RV was 2-3 weeks old when the Blowmax hit Craigslist. They got me home from the dealer and that's as far as I trusted them.

I got sick of sitting along side the interstate changing tires, I got to the nearest Discount Tire and put four new Michelin Light Truck tires on, no more sitting along side the interstate for me!!

Got all new Hercules 901 LTs this week. No more blow max. You can definitely tell the difference between all steel commercial tire v/s the st tow max. $155.00 each from my local tire guy.
