Both rear tires veerubber taiga h/t size lt 245/75r16 dot # 6msg-ch had become unserviceable due the inside side wall belt plys separating rendering the vehicle unsafe to operate. The tires were replaced on 5 Mar 2021 with new copper stfr solarus lt245/75r16 through mavis tire which had installed the taiga tires mentioned above on 21 may 2020. This is unacceptable for these ties since they only approximately 15000 miles on them and they had a service life of 45000 miles. This issue came to light when we were operating our van on a highway traveling at approximately 60 miles an hour.

Purchased 4 new autoguard (bct) lt 225-75r16 tires, on clearance from wm in July 2017. Installed all 4 on rear of a 29' 2000 forest river sunseeker a week later, prior to our family summer road trip in July 2017. After approx. Only 5000 miles of usage, the right rear int. Tire had a catastrophic failure on July 31 2019 while travelling at about 55mph, up an incline, just before exit 145 on interstate 81 south, near hazelton pennsilvania 18249.

On our return, approx 1000 miles later, I noticed an increasing rough vibration from the left rear side this time. Vibrations increased while driving on the interstate over 50mph. I checked the tire pressure of all 4 rear tires several times. They were all still at 75psi (max 80 psi dual). I made 5 stops at several rig repair and smaller tire retailers over 2 states requesting to check the lr wheel balancing of the RV, believing I had lost some wheel leads. Not one would take a 29� class c in to check the cause of the vibration. Limped back slowly for 300 miles, returned to the same tire dealer on August 16 2019 who discovered that both left rear tires were not roadworthy, one was excessively worn, deformed, had interiour bulging and interior blistering and apparent tread separation. From the tire radial! 4 technicians had never seen such prematures deformaties. They believed it would blow if they tried to reinflate it. I took pictures and videos and kept the tires as evidence.

Severe alloy wheel corrosion on all wheels.

Normal wear and tear on alloy wheels should not result in the severe corrosion I have on my wheels. I don't know if there is a failure risk, because I am not a metallurgical engineer, but the corrosion is substantial. It looks to me like the clear coating on the wheel has trapped moisture and road salt, allowing the accelerated corrosion. I have emailed american racing and I have been ignored.

While driving the vehicle's right front wheel came off with the lug nuts still attached to the hub. As a result the vehicle jerked to the right and ran into a wall. The manufacturer has been contacted. Please provide any additional information.
