Well, I finally got to experience a tread separation on one of my trailer tires.
The tread peeled completely off the tire casing.
I had checked all tires 2 hours before departure.
Road speed was consistant, and under 65mph.
There was no explosion, or horrific scene to report.
I had pulled off the highway for a lunch & "rest" stop.
Went around the truck and trailer as usual, and there it was, the left front tire, fully inflated, but no tread.
There was some damage to the drian pipe, and the metal band that carries the wiring & propane to the kitchen slide, as well as the wheel well tin-work.
I took pictures, and changed out the tire & wheel with the spare.
Once home I e-mailed Goodyear, and was taken care of of promptly.
The team involved gave me a list of things I should do to expedite my claim.
I complied, and in 3 weeks all is well.
The check for damage & replacement tire arrived yesterday.
All in all a very good experience from the Goodyear folks!
