Given the rim look below, it looks weathered, so possibly a while Yeah that could blow at some point. More likely at high speeds or in warmer weather.

My bro came over and basically said all tires need to be replaced. Only 35k miles, but vehicle has been on the road since 2018, so they are 5 years old, and generally not in great shape, according to him. Hopefully will get more than 35k out of my next set 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend these: https://www.michelinman.com/auto/tires/michelin-defender-ltx-m-s Have these on my CR-V and RAV4. Good all season tire especially for winter and long tread life as long as you rotate regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazey Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 I always found OEM car tires were garbage but truck tires the opposite but then trucks are over engineered so no scrimping on them. Rim might need to be checked as well. Looks like it to took a pointy end of a curb. Could have a hairline crack. Alloys don’t take much abuse.

Skivt2 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Anyone know how long we can go without power or water before our pipes freeze and burst? Power out since 11 PM Friday night. House was 47 when we left at 5pm. Outside temp 24. Forecast for 22 but we tend colder at our house. No estimate from power company. Forecast of 30 daytime tomorrow though we face south with big windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
