You two have prompted me to begin keeping a log, by serial number of the tire, and location (on the rig) of the tire, at the occurrence of each tire event. When in route, I'm not willing to pull the other tires, same side, for inspection. But I'd be willing at the next long-term stop to use the leveling jacks to raise the trailer, and take the non-event tires to have them checked out (and to serve as the 2nd opinion, now that I have been alerted for what to look). I'm hoping that by not doing the inspection immediately, that putting some miles on the non-involved tires will allow any problems that will manifest themselves, to begin to appear - the easier to spot.
Stacey - you wrote of younger and inexperienced employees. Too frequently the case. We all want to buy on the basis of price alone, and then there is no money to keep those employees until they are experienced. But the inexperienced also, seem to not care to learn. Just put in their time.
Thank you both for helping me along on this
