I’m trying to figure out if I have a bigger problem or just user error. When I purchased L3130 the previous owner told me the front tires would pop off the wheel when turning in 4 wheel drive. I chalked it up to don’t steer super sharp while using the 4 wheel drive. Well yesterday after unloading my box blade from my trailer the tire popped off the bead. I was turning but I was barely moving and it slipped off the bead. I was surprised and that leads to my question. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? Is it possibly the tire was low on air and this caused it? Can I drive in a tight turn and not have this happen? Thanks in advance and happy to give more detail if needed.

I think I’d take it to a good tire shop. If it’s the right tire for the right rim, I don’t think it should pop off the bead unless the air was extremely low.

What’s the air pressure for the tire that stayed on?

Honestly didn’t check the pressure on the other tire. I will check tomorrow. Thank you

Do you have an Operators' manual with the published tire pressures.

I am very interested in the pressure of the other tire
