We've had super singles on trailers for about 10 years now and we put them on the trucks last year. We have run both tall and wide base singles. Only had one blow or ever go flat and it was last year after hitting a seam in the bridge it blew out, the tire was getting a little old but it was a virgin tire. Tore up the trailer pretty bad but I was able to take it down an off ramp and get it changed on the side of the road. They do sink worse in soft conditions, we haven't found any wide base with an aggressive tread, so far they are horrible in slimy conditions. We have tall singles like on the front of dump trucks running as drivers on a Columbia and they do fine in slimy or wet conditions, however they are pretty aggressive tread. The weight savings was our main goal plus its a lot easier to check tire pressure.

I have never personally seen or experienced any degraded performance in rain over duals.
