Bummer on the blown tire but damn that's a lot of driving while it was blown. Was it fish tailing?

no, it was driving and handling just fine

I jut drove up to wheel kings and got another one put on, it was over 4 more miles,

so almost 35 miles on a blow out low pro, half of that at 65 mph, other half at about 30-35 mph,

Rim is undamaged and it balanced out like normal, LOL

heres a good view of the tire

OK, this tire needs to be recalled, I just got a new one last monday, and now today, well yesterday (monday) one week later, I am almost 2 hours away from my city, and all of a sudden I start to hear a loud noise a-fucking-gain

Stop at a gas station to get gas and check it out, here its what I find, it held up until I made it home at least, but this is a BS, the side wall was boiled out like a foot long around 1/4 of the whole tire, and there was another one on the other side, I did not hit anything, i've been riding this size tire for 6 years now, never had an issue until these.

First pic is the really long boil,

In this pic, I let the air out of the tire, because it was literally about to explode, this is on the other side of the tire

its been on the inner side wall both times, two tires in less than a month, its on the right rear of the car,

I have not even drove my car enough to hit anything, Today I was on I44 a well maintained highway, no potholes, nothing, and if I was hitting something to ruin a tire, it would ruin my front tire before ruing the rear because there is a huge difference in weight on the front of the car, vs the back.

Im starting to think that is more of a Tire defect than something that is your fault Purp...

Yea I think its a defect also in this particular brand. The reason I have zenneti on that one wheel unfortunately is because im waiting on some lexani tires in this size to get back into warehouses. The reason the lexani got ruined was because my valve stem had gone bad while I was driving and did not know there was an issue until it was too late.

Ok so this again ended up being a valve stem issue. The first tire was a valve stem problem. Then I got a new tire new valve stem well when doi g 75 I was loosing tire pressure going down to 10 to 15 psi. The tire would get really hot and whe I would fill it back up cause the side walls to get all warped and blow shitty deal

Its fixed now and holding air what a run of bad luck
