Your selection options do not have the year of the car, make, model, tire size or tire model so I filled something in to allow me to go further on your options right rear tire went flat on my 1938 studebaker state commander. I was doing approximately 35-40 miles per hour. I did not hit any pot holes or get a puncture. The inside cord separated from the rest of the tire and shredded the inner tube. I contacted the tire manufacturer, mccreary tire & rubber but have had no response from them. This is a general tire brand and the jet air model. The tire number is cywmc4d82211. The tire size is 6.00 x 16. I realize the tire is six years old but it only has 2000 miles on it and I am worried the other tires on the car can have the same problem happen too them. I just want to know if this is a defect on a single tire or is this a mfg run problem? Three police officers pulled up behind me put on there safety lights and then changed the tire for me. I'm a 71 year old disabled vet.
