Nothing happens if you drive through a detached tyre. Don't know why but
once it seperates from the vehicle it becomes non solid. A few days ago
while racing online at Monza I was exiting Vialone to be confronted with 4
tyres bouncing down the road. I have no idea where the chassis was but it
really was quite amusing. It was lucky I knew to just drive thru them 'cause
I might of had a tough time avoiding all of them.
