 Your system did not allow for me to select the proper model of tire, so i have to select what was there. the proper model is klever. purchased 2005 heartland landmark triple axle fifth wheel trailer in june 2006. traveled from tx to wa and used it in local area for camping for three years. moved back from wa to tx in nov 2009 and had two separate blow outs where the tread of tire separated from the case. tires are kenda klever 235/85r16, air press and torque was checked each stop. over all the trailer had less then 5k miles on it. replaced the two tires with another brand. old tires are available for study. as far as i know the tires did not strike uneven road surfaces. overall damage to trailer is over 4k. *tr
