Re: Will this blowout?
haha yeah....hopefully this guy in PA sells me his rims.....Im just hoping the alignment isnt off. I mean I drove with out my hands to see where the car goes and its fine.....and the car still runs fine...it could of been a lot worse, I almost hit a tree head on and like an idiot I wasnt wearing a seat belt. But the good news is there is no leak cause Ive been checking it non-stop

Re: Will this blowout?
If you hit a bump while going anywhere over 15mph, you're very likely to blow out the tire's air pressure and lose control because there isn't too much rim surface to cover the bead of the tire anymore. I seriously advise you put the donut on or replace that rim ASAP!!sigpic

Well, they will deflate the tire first. When they do dismount the tire from the rim, the tire will be junk. You will need a new rim and a new tire in this case.

Re: Will this blowout?
no way....my buddy told me that it wouldnt blow out and if it did he would pay for everything. And as stupid as it is to say I weigh aroung 265 and I hopped on the tire and started bouncing up and down and it was fine. lets hope for the best
