    All 4 of my Westlakes blew out at the same time, even the spare! Weird!
    I replaced them with Goodyears which just hit 70,000 miles and they still look new!

    Hey Cal...
    IF you look 2 posts above, I think you'll realize that there's more to blow outs than tire ratings !!
    A LOT MORE !!

    If you mean DMB......lol

    Otherwise, I KNOW the E rated tires had/have all kinds of issues, but haven’t seen much feedback or data on G rated Westlakes.

    With about 6000 miles in 5 months, mine still appear ok.....just ran across the AZ and CA desert in 114 temps, and pressures and temps all were consistent......eg sunny side a tad warmer
