Was it a Run Low Sidewall flex or was it a Belt/ tread separation? Did you get a thorough "Cut Tire Inspection" completed?
Most wheels are load limited not psi limited (in a normal range for their application)

It shredded the thing so no idea. I had just inflated them to 50 maybe 10 min before the blowout. I spend time before hooking up to check tires and air up accordingly before hitting the road including checking lug nuts and the bolts on my equilizer. Definitely wasn't due to being lazy. I didn't notice any bulges but this is the 3-4th year on the "China bombs". I wasn't going to risk another blowout especially since one tire was carrying the weight on that side for Lord knows how long. I never felt it go and after when I was on one tire.
