I seem to recall that your Michelin that suffered the tread separation was a "J" rated European designed tire. They are speed rated at 62 MPH. I think Michelin only did them on the Suites for about a year.

I emailed Michelin a number of times about that speed rating for RV service and never got an answer. I live 10 miles from Michelin of North America so I stopped-in and asked the duty expert. The answer was; "We are suspending that fitment with DRV". Nothing about why.
