    Well, that's certainly unfortunate. That is quite a bit of damage to the RV. Just a word of caution. Make sure you keep a good eye on that wheel. The stress of a blow-out can cause a wheel fracture that may not show up immediately.

      Was it the 16" G-rated tire? Were you monitoring with a TPMS? Can you provide any details about conditions at the time of the failure?
