The dryrot cracks wasn't just on the outside btw, it had spread into the inner tire. What I don't get is how it just popped only two weeks after I put the car on jack stands when it had spent months on the ground supporting the car's full weight.

Coincidental.

I once had a wheel bearing that gave no indication of failing totally size after changing a tire.

Theres your problem.

On a serious note, how old?

This op. How old is it? I'm pretty sure they don't make that tire anymore.

Check the last four numbers of the dot. If there's only 3 numbers then that tire is from the 90's

You should be glad you were not driving on a cliff-side road where there is no guard rail. Your tire pops due to the high altitude causing extra stress to the tire. REEEEeeeeee right off the cliff

I instantly lose respect for anyone when I see their tires are rotting. You could be warren buffet for all I care...if you got as much as a spider crack along the outsides then you're DROPPED

seriously. These people run the same set of tires for 2-3 years. It's ridiculous
