Best Answer

The most probable cause of a front tire starting to tear itself apart would be from uneven wear. I recommend that you have a front-end alignment performed, and replace both front tires.

The next most common reason would be that the tires are out of balance; have the new tires properly balanced when installed.

If you hit a pothole, it's possible that the pothole caused both of these problems, and may have damaged the tire at that time.

If the tire and rim separated, then the pressure was far to low or the tire was too narrow for the rim. If the entire wheel/tire separated from the vehicle, then 'A' frame and/ or shock broke up.

Why and how are tires rotated?

Why? To even out tire wear. The front tires will wear much quicker than the rears on a FWD vehicle. The front tires are pulling the vehicle and are also steering the vehicle. This causes friction which causes wear. You rotate by simply putting the rear tires on the front and the front tires on the rear every 10,000 miles. Click the link and go to Tire Rotation.
