Explosion! We Need a New Spare Tire!
Never know what will happen in our lives, every week something happens that totally surprises us!
We have a Honda CRV (over 8 years old!) that has a spare tire attached to the rear door.
We left work in the evening and there it was - all frayed, ripped, torn, etc. Definitely an explosion. It was very hot that day and we have not had the tire cover on for a couple of years.
Sun damage? Who knows!

Get out of town!! That can really happen??
Mental reminder for myself: Never visit Florida in the dead of summer.

Wow, I've never seen that happen before. Glad no one was standing nearby when it decided to go ka-boom!
Mmm, troubling. But, better that situation than a worse one.
Wow. I've seen car windows blow out in the extreme heat from the pressure, but not yet a tire. You're right - maybe it was weakened from being exposed for so long...
Wow! That's something else.
Well that's a new one on me! I've never seen such a thing! Good thing it was your spare instead of the ones you ride around on!
