Unrelated PSA, be careful not to let your car's tires near an ignition source or anything flammable that could stick to them, like glass bottles containing gasoline (side note, cloth rags make a terrible cap for those types of bottles - the liquid will wick right through them!). Once a tire starts burning, it's nearly impossible to put out, and could spread to other tires or areas like the interior.
If your tire does start burning, don't film it - the battery in your phone could be especially dangerous exposed to high heat. Best if your phone isn't anywhere near it.
Stay safe folks!
