If You have a Blowout on a super single..
They will cause one hell of a lot of collateral damage to your coach.
...and when that happens you are "dead in the water" until you either get the tire replaced (IF they can find one) or hauled in on a roll-back semi trailer..

EDIT.... post timed out for editing.
Meant to say
Hydro-planing... not Hypo-planing

so solly's

Not necessarily,

Hypo | Define Hypo at Dictionary.com

5.
to increase, boost, or augment: to hypo the car's power by installing a bigger engine.

I would contend that supersingles would increase, boost, or augment planeing (as related to water).

With super-singles a typical motorhome might save 100 lbs in weight, and maybe get some tiny improvement in rolling resistance on the dual wheel axle. So what do you think that gains in fuel economy? If it is as much as 1% (I'm doubtful), would you even notice? And maybe a little CCC?
