THAT YOUR ENTIRE WHEEL IS GONE!
I got a text from a lady friend that her mom had called her and said that she had lost a tire on her way to work but didn't realize it was gone till she got to work. We both assumed that she just got a flat that went down slowly and she didn't realize it cause the roads are mostly snow covered. So thru more conversation we realize that she lost the entire wheel and tire... Not a flat tire.
She had no clue at what time her tire came off or where! Luckily as I turned a corner I saw her brake drum sticking out of the snow bank. As soon as I jumped out to grab the drum I saw the tire track going up the same snow bank. Her tire had jumped the bank and hit a small tree. She had drive on the hub for about a 1/4 mile and just thought that her muffler fell off and was dragging!!!!
