I would say that's one of the reasons they dropped the old G159 tire for the newer G614.
Unfortunately like other aspects of the RV situation they can't control the conditions under which their tires are used to include over loading and or under inflation. If the tire as selected by the manufacturer of the RV was marginal for the load to begin with or the load is not balanced evenly by the RV design, it wouldn't take much to exceed the load rating of the tire.
FWIW I have had good luck with the G614's and no complaints. I also check each tire with a pressure gauge each travel day before we move as part of my hitch and go routine.
