Granite Granite tire failure

[Frankthetank]

So i bought my granite in February of this year. Super fun and quick. Well yesterday i was doing a “speed run” and i had a tire explode at 50 mph lol. Has anyone seen this happen on their trucks? And will the send me a replacement?

I usually blow a tire every 6 months but by that time they are too worn to perform well on loose surfaces. I kinda like the stock granite tire/wheel combo because more expensive “better” tires last longer than the hexes in the wheels.

Yeah it isn't uncommon. It isn't a road tire. That's usually when the pop.

Did you vent them?

Did you vent them?

no i did not. Haven’t done anything to the tires. Think it’s from them expanding so much at high speed??

They are stock vented. It is just a very soft rubber. They let go at the rim and the whole tires is done at that point.

Vented in the rim. . Same as a vented tire. We just vent the tire to allow water and dirt a place to escape.

Common problem running on the street at high speed, they don't last forever doing that with all the balooning.

You need to vent the tire and seal the rim. It’s a quick 5 min fix.

Thats what im saying was it vented to get rid of dirt and water?

I haven't tried to get warranty on tires because I try to save up my claims for the big stuff. You should be able to find a new set pretty cheap online. 2/$25 or 4/$50

Or only buy the tire itself and unglue the worn tires like i did lel
But i ended up cracking my wheel during winter soooo XD

If I had to glue my own tires every time I had a blow out I would absolutely quit this hobby and shoot myself in the mouth.

I'm sorry I must have been confused between did you vent them. Which they are from factory. And did you vent the tire.

I glued my own tires for the first time and it was quite satisfying but the steps to cook the tires to unglue them is a bit of a pain. I need to glue a few spots back on but i heard superglue gets bad if not in the fridge when not in use lol. I had a little cut on thmy side of my front tire i think i glued it back togueter but idk if it held or not

I used to keep my glues in the fridge but heard opposite. The key is to keep it away from humidity with the lid off. Do the job and close the lid quick. I keep mine at room temp.

Oh noted but my glue is still liquid like water. I need to keep my lid closed when not in use while im workig. Might explain why my gorilla glue became a paster after i decided to not use it anymore even with the lid on?‍
