Went to the BFG TAs 2 years ago when 2 of my OEM Marathons "bubbled". I am also right at about 11,000 on the rear axles for our normal "loaded" beach week, less for our weekend getaways.
On Monday the left rear tire failed and trashed everything from there on back. Wheel well trim, slideout trim, tore off the whole rear quarter panel, tore up the insulation all the way to the floor. Luckily no one behind me was hurt by the flying debris. Good Sams ERS was there within an hour to help me change it. Not bad for a busy holiday. btw - check ed pressures and condition not 30 minutes earlier when leaving the campground. Maybe picked up a nail and lost pressure? TPMS is on the shopping list regardless.
The worst part was towing home with a a Marathon (spare) as the replacement. Kept looking in the mirror for a bubble! So...back to square one in the quest for reliable tires.
