Tub Asko Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Hmmm looks like I had a buddy torch a tire off because the previous owner like put some plastic weld or some shit on the tire to the rim so it wouldn't come off by conventional means lol Quote Facebook Youtube Murdered '07 Silverado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexyhex Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'm not sure, my family was driving it from NC to KY for me and they said it blew 40 miles into the trip. Not sure what happened, brand new Toyo tires...place I got the wheels is sending me a new tire. Wheel is okay it looks like. Everywhere just about around where I am can't do over a 20 on their tire/wheel machine. Had to go to Nashville just to get the tire off...suckage. They dropped the bomb right when I got home, oh well, at least no one was hurt. No rub or anything. Highway 1, Me 0. Quote '03 Ford Explorer XLT 24s Dem 24s?

treossi Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 i'm a mechanic, i've worked with tires for a couple years now, blow outs happen for a few reasons, mostly due to under, or over inflation, the tire looked to have good tread life still, so it could be caused by those reasons, they could have also hit something in the road causing it, or factory defect Quote Team sundownWESTCOASTSPL.COM we're throwing dbdrag events very soon visit the website for details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*1LOWSUV* Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Not sure of your rim depth or tire size (I know its a 20 but 20 by what?) but that happens alot when you stretch a low-profile tire onto a wide rim. : Quote [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1G1LANT3 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 How old is the tire? Like the date it was made. Should say DOT then some numbers beside it..whats the numbers in the circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
