If you've got a tire to mount on or offroad, you can do so by spraying WD-40 around the entire circumference of the tire's bead and igniting it. Is really handy if you've blown a bead offroad!

This guy does it using a small amount of WD-40 but I suspect there was more fuel in the tire than what was shown. Other flammable liquids may work as well. Be careful!

Example
I saw this technique on a show years ago when scientists were driving across the artic they had a flat and a female had a can of hairspray. Good stuffg
