I blew a 365/70/22.5 on the tag after I left Bella Terra. Tom pictures explains why I had no warning on the failure. I have monitors on all wheels which give pressure and temp with alarm set for high and low temp and pressure which never activated. The DOT dates on the tires were less than 4 years old. It was like a bomb filled with nail went off which stuck in the drive tire directly in front, damage the paint, slide seal airline, and wheel well. No rubber was left on the wheel. I finally found a tire 295 and rim ($850) to get home on. I now have gone back to 315 on tag and drive with 365 on steer only. I have installed new tires everywhere now. I will be running 125 in the steer and 130 drive and tag. From my tire experience with Cars, Karts and M/C more problems occur form under inflating not from to much air. Speed is important, although this tire blew when it cool and I was driving at Steve B speed 62. I had plug this tire in the past and it had been run under-inflated.
