Tow dolly Tires

Lost 2 tires and fenders yesterday one in GA & one in FL. It was weird because my truck was showing 88 degree outside temp on both blowouts. Another indication I had was a very slight vibration for a while at 65mph just before them letting go. I purchased these tires 38 months ago and had 1280 miles (one trip New York to Florida) and had the dolly stored in Florida under cover for 2 seasons. Tires looked great (no cracks and aired to 50PSI). I thought I'd mention this to those who use dollies as when I talked to a Rep at the Mfgr he recommended changing dolly tires every 3 years period. Mainly due to dollies having no suspension and really stressing the tires. Personally, I'm going back to bias ply tires, I've had better luck with those over the years.
