    I’ve been driving a truck for 8 years. Never had a tire blow out myself, but have seen it happen in front of me. It is easy to loose control of the wheel when that happens.

      Do y’all retread? Like gluing new treads I think it is IIRC—IDK if that’s as common today as it was 20 years ago

      Mine was a trailer tire on a triaxle. I still had 11 tires back there, so it was easy to find a safe spot to stop. I got lucky n that way.
