That's what I would think, too. The back end had better stay back
there. OTOH, a blowout in the front can ruin your day, too. Modern
tires don't tend to self-destruct that way, though.


I experienced a rear tire blowout as a kid. Pretty wild ride - off the highway,
over a barbed wiree fence. Both bumpers folder back 90 degrees on the right end.
I'm not sure I'd recommend it.

Have you suffered and survived a front wheel blowout???
