The tires were 225/75/15. There was no damage. I was only traveling about 60 mph and was able to get stopped immediately when I heard the pop. The odds of curbing are very small ( I can see my tires in my mirrors ) but is always a possibility. There was no damage the second time either.

But I also need to point out that I knew that in the beginning and I did not pay Maxxis or Mitchelin dollars for them.
