It happened to me twice. First time, it was with my tubeless MTB tire. Pumped it up for a mountain bike ride (60 psi), then loaded it on the hitch rack. The outside temp has risen to over a hundred. About 5 miles from home I hear this loud bang from my vehicle's rear. It was my mtb tire.

Second time was when I was cleaning the road bike's tire/wheel in the laundry sink. I didn't realize I only had the hot water on. You guessed it. Another loud bang.

In both instances, the wheels went out-of-true.
