Tire Go Boom

Driving down 694 this morning at 430am to pick my sister up to take her to the airport and BOOM Front right tire pretty much exploded. Pulled over thinking, oh its just a tire, whatever. went out to look... I was soooo WRONG...



The tire took out the fender, front bumper fascia, running board, inner fender liner, ABS harness, and messed up the rim a bit

Front Bumper:



Fender Bottom:



Fender Top



Running Board:



And Tire:



Don't really know what happened. Tires may just be too old. We made it to Indiana/Kentucky last weekend just fine pulling a trailer. I guess I'm glad that it was the front not the back.
