@@MaverickWelding he had factory spec tires. While great for gripping, they have weaker side walls for better street comfort. They also had quite a bit of usage over the 2 years he has been using his Raptor. He was at 20 PSI which for what we were doing was fine. Second blow out was a rock striking the rim and then tire also. I had two blow outs on my stock tires as well before switching to D rating which he has since done. Fun fact. He has had 3 blow outs over the two years and it’s all been that front, passenger tire!
I concur with Caleb’s assessment. The stock C rated K02 weighs under 65 lbs, making it great for comfort and fuel economy. They were great tires for 26k miles, but they just couldn’t take all the off-road miles I’ve put on them. After driving 500 miles home I discovered a big goiter forming on yet another tire. Replaced them with 38” Falken Wildpeak RT/01s. At D-rated 80 pounds, the ride is a little stiffer, gas mileage is down but reliability should be much better.

Bummer the Alien buddy couldn't hang in there.
Right!?
Good lord that roof rack on your bronco mooves alot 😬
Ohhh yea. I’m working on a fix currently which will probably be its own video
Why did he have 2 flats? Tire age and or heat from running too low of pressure at 50-70 mph?

@@GoofingAroundBraptor The thin sidewalls of the C-rated tires flex more so would be more prone to overheating at low pressures at higher speeds.
I'm surprised it lasted that long , New Broncos are weak
