But as the Inspector says......it does look shopped....how thin then must the outer belt/coating have been to blow up like that :?:

Pretty sure it was Bob Jane T Marts who introduced Kleber to the Australian market. :shock:

You hit a gutter and split the tyre but the outer layer is soft rubber and does not split so you end up with a baloon on the tyre.
I have been standing next to one when it went bang. It was a 10.00x20 truck tyre. I was not standing for very long.

Yes Bob Jane is to blame. :wink:
