Changed a tire. A new tire. A new 35x12.5 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP tire. 546 miles on the new 35x12.5 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP tire. I've only had the new 35x12.5 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP tires for two weeks. Haven't even had a chance to go off road with the new 35x12.5 15 Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP tires.
Traveling down the highway at 70 MPH the Jeep settled in front and pulled hard to the driver's side. No bang, no boom, no real drama, just went flat. Got it to the side of the road and saw this:

A closer look at the sidewall tear. Looks like I scraped the sidewall on something, not uncommon when off roading, but there was nothing in the road to hit, no other vehicles nearby, nothing obvious to cause the blowout. Might be a puncture at the bottom of the tear, might not. Invisible nail? Laser hit from Low Earth Orbit? Incompetent assassination attempt with a .22? 'Tis a mystery.

I threw the spare on (definitely going to replace the OEM jack with something better, it worked as it should but it was cumbersome and more time consuming than it needed to be) and headed for home base. The wife called Discount Tire, I had paid for the certificates for return or replacement when I bought the tires. I'll be dropping the tire off tomorrow morning, they will have the new (new new?) tire mounted and balanced by the afternoon, no charge. Moving on.
Installed a roof rack .. the air bags help with the sag too! Overall great experience installing everything.
