Default tire problem

So I just got some 33-12.5-15 tires put on yesterday, and went over a slight bump while in a corner and my back right tire popped. Psi is what the tire says at 35. Checked it no obvious holes, I'm wondering did it just break the seal?

You're saying you heard a popping noise, checked the tire pressure and it was fine? How much lift are you running, and did you cut your fenders? Pics of the tires?

4.5 inch lift. I found the problem tho, stupidly I forgot to take off the rear sway bar and the tires were rubbing against it and I'm pretty sure that's what popped it. Haven't found a hole so I think it jammed inbetween the wheel and tire
