How exactly does this happen to a tire? No date code on the tire so no clue how old it is but the car it's in is a 98. Surprisingly it still had air in it but what caused the failure? Water? Heat? Cold? Age?


You daily drive a 4 lug car??? Then that spare is probably perfectly fine, since it's probably a 75HP car...
