    Any tire pros that could answer this. Is this tire safe or still good? The inside of the bead got tore up in one area when it was being removed. I was gonna throw an ad up on Craigslist, but want to make sure this thing isn't just garbage. See pics below (big pictures to show what I'm talking about)

    Yeah...Damage that close to the bead is really questionable.
    What happened to it??

    I'm not planning to use it. I was gonna sell it. It still has the nipples on it. It was the spare under my 4Runner. I just don't want to endanger anyone.

    I'm guessing it's just old. That happened when the shop removed it from the wheel. The rest of my tires are 235/75/15....that one is a 31/10.5...had to get it swapped out.
