Blue-Boat's trailer has 4.80x8 tires, and I lost one last weekend on

in the sidewall while turning the corner, lost air steadily, and
finally
popped one bead right as I was pulling up to the driveway.

When I took it into Discount Tire yesterday to get a new one, they
looked at the date code, and the tire was manufactured in 1981. Gotta
watch out for that dry rot!

LOL that's awesome
