Complete Tread/belt separation originating inside the tire. I have the complete tire and the complete tread. This happened at highway speed. I'm going to the dealer to get an inspection. The only symptom was a bad vibration before the tread separation. LT275/65R20E

On Saturday, XXX, at around 3:00 PM, my wife and I were traveling southbound on Interstate XXX toward [XXX] (this occurred in [XXX], just north of [XXX]).
