I did purchase the Good Year road hazard warranty with these tires. I
guess it's possible that this tire could have been losing air for some
time, as it happened on noisy chipcrete(sp?) while tangling with
several semis on a long climb....we'll never know. Yes, it was obvious
that it was run flat.
The local tire shop owner I mentioned is true to his word and that's
why he gets most of the business in town. He had most of mine in the
past, until this brief interlude, and now he will have it again.
I am curious :

I have read much about rotating tires on the Syncro, but never this.
So you could be running two, say 30% worn tires, one front and one
opposite rear and the remaining two brand new?
I was running Good Year Trailmark 215/75/15s. I don't have them here
with me at this time, but, as I recall, they met all the
criteria...............if not, I'm getting the funny feeling that I
will make this discovery, very soon! They did perform very well on
steep, nasty, rocky offroad climbs and were exceptional in the deep
snow......
