Run them or replace them?

RE: Run them or replace them?
I blew a steer yesterday with no warning. Luckily, I don't drive against the speed limiter, and it was still a bear at 55 to keep her upright. Ended up in some soft soil on the side of the road in danger of rolling over.

I managed to get it into some pavement, replace with my spare and drive it home to preform repairs.

It cut the main hose running to my overflow tank, destroyed the fender liner, cut the brake chamber air hose, punctured to washer jug, pulled the alignment out, tore up the wiring to the right headlight and cracked the cold side of the turbo housing. I'm not sure if I have to replace the wheel or not yet but I'm leaning towards that too.

All of that and they looked fine and we're properly inflated. 283a's at maybe 100k. If you aren't sure just replace them.
