[QUOTE="MinGrey02Stg2, post: 15904612, member: 16543"] That's a scary situation and one that I've been in. When I was 18 and a freshman in college, I got brand new tires put on my Roush. I was driving west on I-10 about 25 miles east of Tallahassee and there was a slight vibration that started. I pressed the brakes a little to load the front, seeing if the vibration worsened, which it didn't. All of the sudden, the car let go and was all over the place. I slowed it down and pulled over as a big bit of smoke passed over the car. Apparently the tire shop didn't inflate the tire enough and the sidewalls melted from the heat. Just like you, I was on the side of the road at around midnight and not one car stopped. One car even beeped like, "Haha." I put the spare on and limped it home. [ATTACH=full]1487276[/ATTACH] Just one of the holes big enough to put your hand through. Brand new tires. [ATTACH=full]1487277[/ATTACH] To the people that have had their tires blow while towing, you definitely need to pump up the tires to the proper PSI when loading them that much. [/QUOTE]
