What caused this???

Most of the time that I've seen that happen is because of what's called a "heat ring". Normally due to people getting a puncture and then driving while the tire is low pressure. In regards to the TPMS system not going off, to my knowledge it can take up to 8-10 minutes for the system to register a flat. Most TPMS sensors only send a signal every 2 minutes, and they don't necessarily transmit all sensors at the same time. It really doesn't matter what brand of the tire it was, or that it was a snow tire or not. I've seen it happen to anything from Hankook's to Michelins and Bridgestones... Glad you're ok, and even happier that Discount Tire is taking care of you
