This is true, it happened to a team I used to be on with a triple axle trailer and we didn't even know we had blown a tire until Johnny Gray pulled up along side and told us. The shredding tire litterly burned the tire well on the inside of the trailer, and the carpeting inside was smoking, so I think you need to reconsider your idea. Just my two cents.
