I’ll have to admit that I often think about exploding tires when I’m working on them. Back about 1958 the neighbor had a fuel route with a truck with split rims. Filling the tire the rim came off and he was laid up for quite a few months. I remember the casts but can’t remember if it was his arms or what that were broken. Never get close to split rims without a cage and of course cars don’t have them but still think about the damage.
