Had the road rider tires on my coachmen fifth wheel. On a trip to DC, I checked all tires and there was no checking, damage, etc. Air pressure was good. Wonderful trip. Couple of weeks later going north for July 4th and not 25 miles from home BAM! Blown a tire. Put apare on and continue the trip. While at camp I'm looking at the tire and blew out the whole tread. Looked like someone cut it cross ways with an razor blade. Also noticed severe weather cracking all over tire. Check the others and they are the same. There was no cracks just 2 weeks earlier. Also comparing tread wear to the spare over half the tread on the tires were wore away. Not 4000 miles, and 2 1/2 years on tires. Bought a new LT for a spare and when I got home replaced all tires with LT's.
New unit has ST's and they will be replaced with LT's soon.
