Managed to detect it and pull over before any wheel damage.

It will feel like finding the Golden Ticket felt to Charlie Bucket.

That was my thinking when I saw it. I couldn't even call roadside assistance for a ride because I left my phone at the office :ugh:

At least the wheel and tire warranty covers replacing all tires as needed. So I'll get at least two new front tires. And if the rear tread is low enough, they replace all four :tup:

Glad you're safe JAR. That's a pretty major blowout. Wonder how and why.

I'm betting it's a flange. I may strip the whole rear this weekend and tighten/deaden some stuff.

It was actually gradual. Tire light came on first, so I was paying close attention. Within the next 1/8 mile I noticed the car pulling to the left. Within a 1/4 mile I started feeling the vibration and pulled over immediately. Only scary part was changing a tire on the side of a 75 mph highway. Normally, I would never even consider doing that. But having no phone didn't leave me with much of a choice. I had the tire changed and back on the road in about 10 minutes, so it wasn't too bad.
