RETTROBAND Tire Blowout protection

Has anyone had the Rettroband installed on their tires?
Just found this yesterday, and seems like a must do investment given
the alternative of steer wheel blowout...

But can't find how much this would cost?

Best way to market any commodity is to generate anxiety, otherwise nightly news and daytime cable news shows wouldn't be a big pharma commercial interrupted by minute long bursts of recycled information read from a teleprompter.

The link said $1750.00-$2000.00 per tire.

Reading the link I posted may give you an idea of cost.

In my opinion, no. Research decent tires as best as you can, and these aren't going to be cheap for a class "A". Adding $2000 bucks per tire on the steer tires alone is ridiculous.
My opinion only.

Thank you sir, I was thinking that also, I installed the safe-t-plus, I figure that would be good for something like a blow out and hopefully I will be able to get it over to the side before something bad happen.

A TPMS is the best tire safety modification you can add to your rig. It will also monitor the tires of your toad, trailer, or dolly.
