Even though this trailer tire was showing good pressure and a nice deep tread, it failed. Most likely this was due to the fact that the tire date code showed it was over 10 years old, and had deteriorated internally. This tire failure caused additional damage to the trailer fenders that wouldn’t even allow the spare to be run, without some roadside blacksmith work on the bent fender. A simple check of dated codes would have encouraged the owner to replace the aged tires on this trailer. Any tire retailer can do tire date code readings, or you can do it yourself.
