You have witnessed what I have described twice on the forum. I have had four tread failures, two of them were as you described: Not aware it happened, shredded tire, significant damage to coach fender well area, and informed by passing motorist. My tires were not 4 years old nor were they cracked. The first set were General tires and the second were Chinese.

Monitors will not prevent tread separation, but will alarm as soon as pressure drops and maybe help prevent the shredding that does so much damage. I, now, meticulously check pressures before starting, run with Duran Monitors, and check temperatures at each stop.

Friday, I will have a nearly new set of OEM missions for sale. I have decided to run on Goodyear G614's. I know they are over priced, but..............after you have been burned......
Iam with you Stiles,I ordered my Michelin Ribs Yesterday from Costco and when I get finished with this reply Iam going om line and ordering the Pro Pressure System.
IMO well worth the money!
