Tire blewout while hanging on my rv as a spare. It had approx 100 road miles on it. Purchased in 5/09. Drove from place of installation, (i10 s bound entry, evergreen, al) to my home (cantonment, fl) and then moved it to spare position (5/09) where it has remained. Purchased as a new tire after having a blowout on the interstate. The steel belts look almost like a straight line was drawn and then cut. They blew in such a perfect line., not ragged as a normal blowout. I moved it to spare as the manufacture of the original tires on the rv replaced the original tires and they were diff brand and load range.
