WITHIN ONE HOUR OF LEAVING HOME HAD THREE SEPARATE TIRE BLOWOUTS ON RV. TIRES DID NOT APPEAR WORN, INFLATED PROPERLY, LOAD APPROPRIATE, AND STORED UNDER COVER. LESS THAN 6000 MILES ON THESE 2 YEAR OLD ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ON HEARTLAND BIG COUNTRY RV. OCCURRED ON I-35 DALLAS CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO RV, AND RESULTING IN PURCHASE ON THE SPOT OF 4 NEW TIRES. TIRES APPEARED TOTALLY SEPERATED.
I BLEW 3 POWER KING TOW MAX ST235/80-16E TIRES ON MY 2011 KEYSTONE 3912 LEV RAPTOR. THE TIRES COMPLETELY FAILED WITH THE CAP COMING OFF IN ONE PIECE. THIS HAPPENED WITH 3 OF THE 6 TIRES ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ALL OF WHICH OCCURRED IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR. NOTE: I FEEL ALL TOWED RV'S SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE TIRES RATED FOR OVER 75 MPH OR THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO WARN ALL CUSTOMERS VERBALLY AND IN LARGE PRINT.. I FOUND OUT ST TIRES HAVE A MAX SPEED OF 65 MPH. I DRIVE THE POSTED LIMIT WHICH COULD BE 85 MPH IN PARTS OF TX. THE DEALER NEVER TOLD OF THE DANGERS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERSTATE USE WITH ST TIRES

Power king navitrac nms20: what the numbers tell you
Manufacturer treadwear data for the Navitrac Nms20 is not publicly listed. This is common for OEM-only or track-day tires that don't carry a US treadwear warranty. No mileage warranty is published for this tire, which is typical for performance summer and track-day rubber where the manufacturer doesn't make wear-life claims.
Cabin noise data for this tire is not published by the manufacturer. As a general tire built for the passenger segment, the Navitrac Nms20 is positioned against direct rivals within the same category. Comparing it to a tire in a different category (e.g. summer vs all-season) makes the spec sheet misleading because the design targets are not the same.
The Power King Navitrac Nms20 has been part of Power King's catalog since its introduction, and remains a current-production model.
For an apples-to-apples comparison against direct rivals, see the comparison pages linked from this tire's brand index.
