Sounds to me like your car is totaled. :/ I have no idea actually but that sucks. Sounds like it shouldn't be a hard fix at all any ways. Good luck! :3_nosthum
 
I've done something like that before, what I think happened (at least for me) was low tire pressure and too many people in my tib and the tire rubbed a hole lost all tire pressure and ripped the tire to shreds. My tire came off rolling on fire down the interstate. I vaguely remember cuz it was my b-day and was totally drunk, but I got it fixed the following day. My sober friend was driving and he didn't even notice anything till the car started shaking like crazy.


Probably just came off the bead from low tire pressure (poor seal), it happens check the tire and check to see if wheel is bent. Put the donut on and take the wheel in.

Drinking and driving is illegal in your state?
Friends don't let friends near their cars at parties?
Tire is off the rim but does seem to have lost any air or anything? Drugs are also illegal.

haha no trust me i was 100% sober, didnt drink or do drugs, but my tire never shredded or got destroyed its still on the wheel just slightly moved in, ill take a picture of it , gonna go see if it lost any air from last night.
 
Your air pressure was probably low and forced the tire off the bead. Depending on how long you drove like that the tire sidewall could've been damaged. Take the wheel off and take it to a shop to be checked out. Depending on what caused the low pressure (leaking valve stem, leaking bead, hole in the tire) you may have to have it repaired or replaced.
 
This happened to both our Hyundai Santa Fe and Accent. Cars were not driven over the weekend and we had a cold snap here in the North East as our Fall weather was very short. It was warm on Friday and got extremely colder by Monday throughout the weekend. Getting into the Santa Fe to go to work and the tire indicator was on in the dash. The damn tires all around were down to 20 lbs. or less of air. Switched over to the Accent and the same thing had happened. First I thought it was some neighborhood prank, then couldn't find any indication that the tires were tampered with. Turned the compressor on from the garage and refilled the tires on the Santa Fe and headed to work. Kind of hard to believe the the change in temperture like that caused the tires to lose air pressure so drastically.
 
Lunchboxx my firend prob should get a new tires I worked at dealer this happened to a few trucks with low tire air. It can happen on any tire. Ruins the tires most times... And it was like 10 degrees the other nite bro lol.
