Question Have you ever wondered . . .

. . . What the inside of a TowMax tire looks like?

I have not heard of TowMax in awhile. I thought they had gone by the way of all blown Chinese bombs.

Yep, 3 times in 20 years of towing trailers I have experienced that situation. Not fun and I believe a Tow Max tire wax involved in one of them.

Thanks for the reminder of what it looks like. I have had a few also but not with Tow Max. There were a lot of bad tires out there but since G614's I almost forgot what a mess it is.

Commonly known as "BlowMax".

Yup, that was a looong day. The failure in the pic followed by another 70 miles later. Replaced them with the G614 and they’ve been flawless since.
