You have that VERY wrong. You’re lucky that your idiotic driving at 230km/h didn’t kill anyone else, you or your car doesn’t matter when you drive with that much disregard for others on the road.

Hopefully you’ve learned your lesson and will go buy a Prius for your future driving.

That's why I tell my stupid friends who say they can hit 130 in their ford focus to not do it, because their tires aren't made for it. But the average Joe doesn't think about that do they

Amen amigo.

Indicated 137 US 395 somewhat north of Death Valley (appropriate for my dumb *** at the time).

Corvette. Daylight. One female nurse passenger. She was crazy to ask. I was - like you said - stupid.



Never again (that was a long time back)

Looks like the OP is in Egypt, so maybe that kind of speed is allowed or at least tolerated there. Sainty of driving that fast aside, it could be something was damaged in the suspension when the tire blew. Something like that could cause a lot of damage. Plus, I can't imagine that a wheel would still be repairable. At the very least get a new wheel and see if that makes a difference.

Mohammad, just out of curiousity why were you driving that fast and for how long were you at that speed? Also, what kind of tires were you using? And what tire pressures were you running?

That probably explains what happened. R rated tires are only good up to 109 miles per hour//170KPH. And the pressure seems very low. Put that all together after 15 minutes and you are lucky it was only 1 tire. I would still check the suspension thoroughly and maybe buy a new wheel if the old one was only repaired. You might want to have the other tires checked as well. They might have overheated and even if they did not blow, maybe were compromised a bit.

Some Manufacturers will soon be limiting the top speed of cars on the road volvo will be the first, this to stop people from killing other people. also check out this link https://www.confused.com/on-the-road...ry-on-new-cars

Well if someone doesn't tell you then you'll probably be stupid and do it again then right?
