Here's what i think happened but could be wrong.
I looked long and hard and found this interesting.
1) if you look at your picture of the rim and the disintegrated tire, the letters are on the inside of the rim. (remember this)
2) you show a picture of your tire on the floor with the piece of the tire that was on your rim. When you look at the tire, notice the lettering. Now if you look at this picture http://www.tirerack.com/tires/BigPic...cleSearch=true
You notice the lettering is in the same direction. However there is a problem. These tires are directional, since they are directional how can the arrow point to a clockwise motion but be on the inside of your tire. Well only if it was the Drivers side that blew out, if it was the passenger side then the tire was mounted incorrectly.
Hope that helps!!
