2 DA WDS, I thought about adding a metal shield in case of tire failure, but after further thought I decided not to. The metal would need to be very strong and cover a lot of area to be effective. Even then I'm not sure all damage could be prevented. I had several tire failures on my first trailer, but had no damage. I think it's because I caught them and stopped immediately. I decided my money would be better spent with a tire monitor system. Even then there are no guarantees. I've seen tires loose the tread and stay hard for several miles. If that tread should go inward instead of outward it could do a lot of damage.
