Blew a tire this morning
0500 on 95 south. I guess I wasn't supposed to go to RI.
Did have all the required spare changing stuff, in the garage haha.
Rim looks good.
Anybody suggest where to get a 75st/r14 tire and get it mounted on a rim?
It appears sun damage may have caused weakness in the wall the caused the flat.
Word to the wise, look at your tires and change them if they don't look right, don't wait for it to happen.
I may be done for the year now. It must have been an omen.

I or I should say my boat was rear-ended once, that was much worse than a tire or trailer component failing.
That boat was junked.

Or route 6A on a curve during rush hour with 5 bass and 100 lbs of bluefish, not on ice, going to market on a nice hot July day and no sleep for 30 hours and the cooler is in the boat.

Or on the on ramp to 195W in Fall River after the old rim bounded across the Jersey Barrier into opposing traffic.
I had what felt like 2 feet of space between me and 50 mph piles of steel.
