The product, in the report: snow blower gas powered
snow blower plastic wheel rim exploded while try to inflate a flat off the rim tire. the rim broke in two and with a loud powerfull explosion send the two pieces flying at a great rate of speed and tremendous for flying into and destroying my sink on one side and the other piece struck my forearm causing severe damage and continued into a coat rack then damaged my wall and ceiling finally coming to rest 20 feet away. very dangerous could have killed me. please keep people safe and look into removing this type of wheel. the tire falls off regularly, so I’ve done this many times without this aweful outcome. Im sure there are other people out there doing this same thing trying to get their tire back on the plastic rim, not knowing how violent of an explosion awaits them.
