I've never had a blowout on any of my bikes, or cars. Been a stickler for 3 things my whole life: have the best tires for the usage, the best battery, well maintained brakes, or better brakes if needed. Why? If the tire(s) fail, at the very least, you're not going anywhere. At the very worst, you'll be going somewhere else depending on your beliefs. Batteries? See the 1st part of my tire answer. Brakes? See the last part of my tire answer.
These 3 items fir certain are wearing items, but replacement over fairly long period of time, so I see those as an investment in my confidence in the machine.
