Uniroyal Rainsport 3

Anyone had any issues/problems with these tyres? Had a blow out on Wednesday night and ended up with a 4" slit on the inner sidewall.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1091325 issues re cracks on the inner side walls seem to be common I see a fair few you've got to check your tyres inside/out as regularly as you can to avoid this issue as it doesn't happen over night.
