Help!! Tires popped off rim while driving

So I bought some wheels the other day and noticed that one of them has a small crack



Do you think this crack is causing it to leak air? I didnt use any sealer when I stretched the tires. I put them on about 1 hour after getting them stretched and 2 hours later, it pops off the wheel while driving.

Serious question, did you not notice that crack when you bought the wheels? Was that there when installing the tires?

If so, did you not hear that tire/wheel leaking when you put air in?

Or if it was fine, did you hit something while driving?

Something like that would be losing air rapidly.

If you bought them like that... Have fun and good luck trying to get any money back at this point. I'd doubt that would happen.
