Airplane Tires Don’t Explode on Landing Because They Are Pumped! | WIRED
The article ends by noting that it's really hard to make an airplane tire explode by overinflating, because they are designed to be so strong. I presume they are better now than tires on Orions in the 1980's - as I am aware that an airman lost his legs due to an accidental overinflation explosion in Adelaide in that decade.
