Tire size 205/75/r14 on a 2020 Forest River Wildwood single axel camper. Today was the second time one of these tires failed. The first time was early November of 2024, we were traveling in I69 in Indiana at around 65mph when the drivers side tire rapidly deflated and came apart. Today, we were traveling around 70mph on I70 in Indiana when I heard an explosion type sound and looked in my mirror to see tread flying in the air. During the first time, damage to the camper was minimal. Today bent metal and damaged the leveler, likely beyond repair. The tire that blew today was the spare tire that was put on in November. This was the first time that tire had been mounted and it had less than 500 miles on it. It spent its entire life with a tire cover on it so it was not damaged by the elements. I checked pressure prior to leaving today ensured it was inflated to the suggested 65psi. The tanks were all empty and we were not hauling any excess cargo weight.
