Wow, 72K for a tyre. Great.

Man, thats something we would like to look at. Hope the car pics comes in your travelogue.

Sad. But good thing is you were able to manage and stop it.

Now, let the trip keep going, and the pics flowing...

You were very lucky!

@ Mjothi, Yes, that trip was really wonderful. I still have fond memories of that journey. I have put a pic of my projectors in my T-BHP garage. Your comments are welcome.

@ Kumar Sir ji, I am really thankful to you for your sincere help. I am happy that we got the chance to speak on Day 3. My wifey also appreciated your advice over the phone, when we were on our way to Salem from Hubli on day 2. I have a caring guardian angel in you, when I am on the highways. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Kumar Ji, the tyre was Goodyear GT3 and was only about 35,000 kms and a year and half old. I believe that the tyre burst could have been because of under inflation. I stuck to the company recommended pressure and paid heavily in every sense.....
