    Anyone experience the factory Wrangler Territory's popping of the rim? My wife was driving my 2023 TRD 4x4 yesterday (195 miles on it). She turned onto a residential street and the front left tire went flat. Put the spare on and inspected the tire expecting to see a nail or some type of damage. There's absolutely zero damage to the tire?? It appears that the tire popped off the wheel. I ordered the Goodyear Ultraterrain in 265/75-16. So- I did not take back to dealer. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Could have been really bad at a higher speed.

    The odds of a properly inflated tire just popping a bead while turning I’d bet are pretty close to zero. If you haven’t already I’d bet if you air it up you’ll find a leak somewhere and the tire went low while she was driving and it caused the bead to pop when she turned.

    Probably driven on with a slow leak. Take it to your fav tire shop and have them inspect it.
