michelins seem to delaminate. I have had a bunch of Michelins do this. Generally there is warning , starts with a small vibration that just keeps growing over time.
As to the bead, you should be fine , I have had to use some sealant or tire goop on the area that is missing the seating bead, still managed to seal without a tube.
