Defective tire. It happened to a stake-body F550 I was using a few years ago when I was a home builder’s bitch for a summer. Like 1/3 of the sidewall started to bubble so I decided to take the other truck. I guess like 2 hours later it was just sitting there when a couple of guys at the shop heard a shotgun blast. Tire blew up. That was a hell of a bubble. You’re lucky you didn’t have a blowout. :tup: ---

rubbing and bumping from over-sized tires weakened the cords and his tire became pregnant. ---
