2015 Forest River Rockwood Wheels Problems

“Bought 5th wheel trailer in april 2015 and in 2 yrs have had 3 tires blow out while towing , even though before each trip tires were properly inflated to tire specs, after 3rd tire blow out asked tire replacement center what could be the problem, and was informed that it had c rated tires on it that were maxed out and that it should of had at least d rated tires and even e rated tires would be better for the weight they were carrying, replaced all tires and no more blow outs”

“Tire with less than 1000 miles on it disintegrated without obvious cause while driving at normal speed despite check of air pressure in morning and routine checks of tire condition at stops while en route. Tire was installed by vehicle manufacturer: constancy ly188 st205/75r14. Tire load ratings of 1760 lbs single and 1570 lbs dual seem low for the trailer gvwr of 7655 lbs. Trailer has dual axles...it's not immediately clear to me whether the single or dual load rating applies.”
