Blowouts Two

I have had two blowout on my G614's in the past 4 days. These tires are run at the recommended pressure and under their rated load.
I have Pressure Pro tire monitors and have weighed my TK3.

Both tires had about 11,000 miles on them and have not been exposed to UV. The only unusual thing is that I have not used the RV in the past 18 months and it has been in enclosed storage--but the tires have not been turned--that is the RV has not been moved. Coudl this have been the cause.

My current trip has been in hot weather and the tires rise to about 125 psi duing the day. But this has not been an issue in past years. I start out the day at 105 to 110 on the tires.

The tires that have blown were bought in 2007. I have heard that Good year used Chinese manufacturers briefly. Could I have gotten some of those tires??

I had a blowout in 2007and Goodyear replaced the tire and paid for the RV damage. I am going to have to go down that path again. Takes time and is a hassle.
