Who really knows at this point if the blown tire CAUSED the fire or RESULTED from the fire. Could just as easily be brake or bearing problems.
Tire blew and debris ruptured fuel or oil line.
Ran over hard debris in the road that killed the tire and also got the fuel tank or fuel line.
Was the tire the chicken or the egg?
X2... agreed!
The tire may have failed due to a badly overheated brake or bearing. Unless one drives excessively on a flat tire, it won't get hot enough to cause a fire.
