I now have bought 2 sets of parnelli jones dirt grip tires. I have had 2 inside sidewall blowouts with these tires in the last year. Both times, I have had a large load on the tires, carrying a camper and driving at highway speeds. Both times it has been a rear tire. The first time the manufacture told me it was tire pressure, or I hit something. The first time, I was sure I did not hit something and had proper pressure. The second time I am sure I did not hit anything and had correct tire pressure.
