OK, I know I am opening Pandora's Box here, but with all the talk over the years about the correct weight rated tire for Vanagon Westfalias, are there any documented cases of incorrect rated tires blowing and causing an accident? We've all heard the dire warnings about what CAN happen if you use underrated tires, but does anyone really know of a case? Not your father-in-laws next door neighbors cousins best friend, but actual knowledge. And if a tire is rated to carry, say 1700 lbs., at what point will it fail? 1750? 1800? 2000? There has to be a fudge factor designed in here, what is it? Just curious.... Jeff
