You dodged a bullet. I've seen a number of vids of loose wheel/tire assemblies hitting vehicles. It is no love caress. Vehicle ends up looking like Thor slammed it with his hammer...
This is why you watch the road kids
Driving home from work, somebody wrecked on the other side of the freeway, saw a tire coming my way, luckily I had room to swerve and it missed me and the 3 cars behind me. Stills from my dash cam, I don’t have another way to post the video. Anyways, I highly recommend a dash cam.
