I'm going to be taking the carcass to several tire shops to see what they say. If this is evidence of damage, I'll just replace the one tire. If it's deemed China bomb, then I'll replace all 4 and have words with Les Schwab.
I just do not see how a tire could fail this catastrophically on a day where it wasn't very hot, and I rarely if ever go over 60mph.
Oh, and I've ordered a TMPS which should be here next week. I think I've learned my lesson. Fortunately this happened right next to an RV park on a lightly-traveled road.
I would replace the other tire on that same side, as you are not sure how long it was carrying weight to make up for the other one that failed.
Maybe it is time for some Sailun's or Gladiator all steel carcass tires.
