I had a tire blow up last year that ripped a big hole in the floor of my Z1. Tore up the siding, fenders, a real mess. Fortunately it was covered by insurance. All but the tires. The tire manufacture ran and hid when my insurer tried to hold them responsible. When the RV repair shop fixed our floor they added a metal plate underneath. I guess I am protected if the same tire ever blows up. Seems it is always something.
Something for everyone to keep in mind. Our tires had less than 1000 miles on them, but they were manufactured over five years ago. The tires still had the little rubber stubs sticking out and looked brand new. The age gave the tire folks a way out. Our RV shop recommends replacing tires every couple of years no matter the mileage. And check the manufacture date on the tires. He said not uncommon for tires to sit in a warehouse for two years.
