| Description of the problem | While pulling our camper on i-10 in florida at 65 mph, our tire blew out causing us to be stranded.. It also damaged the rim and part of our camper. After putting the spare tire on, we noticed it looked warped and drove slowly to our camping location. After setting up for camp, we noticed the remaining tire looked strange too. We had to buy a new tire and rim to get home. Bottom line is, all three tires that came on our new camper were suspect. We bought this camper new and expected to be able to use it more than 3 times before needing to replace tires. The tires seem to be defective and they were on our forrest river salem camper.
