Heading out for a trip last week and within 10 miles had a blowout on our FW. More of an explosion actually. Mounted the spare and 5 miles later the one in front of it exploded. Had to have someone come out and mount it on the rim on the road. The dates on the tires were 09/2019 so not that old, no dry rotting and I always check pressure before heading out. No TPMS warning - just BOOM. But when I researched the brand - Ridgway Sport St - I realize should have swapped them out as soon as I bought the FW new. Affectionately referred to as tire bombs and boy were they right.
sounds like you hit a road hazzard. I personaly hate the phrase tire bomb as tires don't just blow up, theres alwasy a reason, weather it be heat from runing them under inflated, road hazzards, age, but at 3 yers that isnt a factor here.
