WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 75 IN GEORGIA, I HAD TWO TRAILER TIRES BLOW OUT APPROX 100 MILES APART. BRAND IS CASTLE ROCK BY LIONSHEAD. WAS DRIVING WELL UNDER THE SPEED RATING OF 75, THE TRAILER WAS ALSO LIGHTLY LOADED. TIRE PRESSURE WAS ALWAYS CHECKED AND WAS CORRECT AT THE TIME OF BLOWOUTS. TIRES WERE ABOUT 2.5 YEARS OLD, ABOUT 8000 MILES. TREAD LOOKED GREAT BEFORE FAILURE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON OCCURANCE AND NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE, AND GET THESE DANGEROUS TIRES OFF THE ROAD. SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE WAS INFLICTED ON MY CAMPER BY THE BLOWOUTS. *DT VIN UNKNOWN *JB

ON THE FIFTH TRIP I ARRIVED AT THE CAMPGROUND AND NOTICED THE RF TIRE TREAD HAD COME OFF IN A LARGE SECTION AND PARTS OF THE STEEL BELT WERE EXPOSED. I ENDED UP REPLACING ALL FOUR TIRES BECAUSE I READ OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM RV OWNERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THESE TIRES (CASTLE ROCK ST235/80R16).*DT*JB
