My friend was driving his 95 Jetta and attempted to take a 90 degree turn in the inside lane. He lost control and wound up in the grass. He popped his tire off the wheel. My question is when did the tire come off? When he started sliding, or when he hit the grass?

I would guess when he hit the grass. Im not an expert, but i would imagine the rim dug into the ground and it took the tire off when it did.
