Uniroyal laredo hd/h lt265/75 r15 had a tread separation that caused considerable sheet metal damage within and behind the right rear wheel well of my chevy Silverado 2500 hd pickup. The incident occurred at 60 mph while I was towing a travel trailer. I never lost control of the vehicle and was able to bring it safely to a controlled stop. The tire was one of four installed new by the auto dealer in early 2012 when I purchased the truck used. The tire had approximately 17,000 miles of use when the separation occurred. I always kept the tire inflated to the truck and tire manufacturers' recommended 80 psi and had just inflated the tire to that pressure (it was at 74 psi before I topped it off) three days earlier, before starting my trip. I noticed a recall of tires of similar vintage in the uniroyal laredo hd/h lt 245/75 r16 series, and I am curious if many tread separations have also been reported for the 265/75 r16 series or if this is a one off incident.
