It is possible, I haven't had a change to inspect the 2nd blowout. I did go through tubes like candy when I first started fixing flats, but I think I got it correct on this one. Regardless, I'm going to have the shop inspect both the wheel and the tire for me. I need some better wheels, anyway. These don't hold up well to the crappy roads and my big ass self.
