CONSUMER RV TIRE BLEW OUT AND COLLECTED WATER WHILE DRIVING IN A RAIN STORM. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE TIRES WERE INFLATED TOO MUCH SO HE REDUCED THE PRESSURE. *KB THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE RIGHT TIRE HAD BEEN RUBBING ON THE WHEEL WELL AND THAT IT HAD WORN HOLES IN THE RIGHT WHEEL WELL. 3 DAYS LATER, THE FRONT LEFT TIRE WENT FLAT DUE TO THE RUBBING ON THE WHEEL WELL.
