WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel
speeds may cause tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone.
Do not spin your vehicle’s wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or for more than
30 seconds continuously when you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a spinning
wheel, no matter what the speed.
