Glad you are okay @redbaron! Keep safe out there.

@redbaron obviously you had a sidewall failure. My tag tires had cupping and an odd wear pattern before replaced and it makes me think of the stress and forces put on these tires when in reverse AND turning. I think any type of turn in reverse is dragging these tires putting forces on them (lateral) that they are not designed for.

As we know "tag dump" is not "tag raise" it's just letting the air out of those bags, how completely who knows and how long do we wait as drivers before putting it in reverse and going in motion? Airbags take time to deflate, I bet most of us never wait long enough for that to occur.

With HWH Active Air, I had to ask for tag dump to be programmed in, it is not the default. With your system, do you know if in fact your tag is dumping? Regardless, with the weight on your coach and higher, I really saw it with King Aires when at Newmar, they have tremendous aft weight it appears. The side force has to be pretty bad on those tag axle tires. Something to be aware of, both tag dumping or not, and making any turns when in reverse.
