damage by tires

We had two tires go, both on right side. Not at same time. First had tread in middle of tire slap the underside pretty good. Next tire was a blowout completely shredding tire. Result was tearing loose the mesh covered insulation exposing thee bare wood. Piece of the decorative trim that screwed to panel was lost as well. Where would I find part numbers for these so I could attach myself? Electrical wires aft and fluid connections forward appear to be undamaged.

Thanks for any help,

Tom

Have you sent pictures to the dealer with a parts request?
What did your insurance company say?

And get rid of those ST tires....change them for either LT tires if you are under 14k lbs or the Goodyear 614 tires if over that.....if you keep the ST's it will happen again down the road.....

X2 on the ST tires.
On my 18+k Toy Hauler - I replaced my 16" tires with the S637 tires from Sailun. The new tires were 61# each compared to the 32# each of the barely worn ST tires.
Simpletire.com is where I got mine. NTB can also get them for you.

Your second tire may have become damaged / overheated by the first tire... This is a recurring theme..
Good luck!
