Sure there seems to be far more damage associated to some brands, but can only wonder if its the marketing campaign actually working against them....ie, people believe they are indestructible and don't drive to the actual conditions, because so and so said on TV that they have travelled the world and never been let down, but so and so most likely knows the correct pressures and don't drive at highway speeds.
