Tire fires, where tires are stored, dumped, or processed, exist in two forms: 1. * as fast-burning events, leading to almost immediate loss of control, and 2. * as slow-burning pyrolysis which can continue for over a decade. They are noted for being difficult to extinguish. Such fires produce much smoke, which often carries toxic chemicals from the breakdown of rubber compounds while burning. Extinguishing tire fires is difficult. The fire releases a dark, thick smoke that contains carbon monoxide, SO2 The Tire Fire (Springfield Tire Yard) is a premium, one purchase, decorative item. It has a constantly burning animation when placed. The player can purchase it for 40 donuts, and it will provide a payout increase of 2%. The Tire Fire can also be attained through the purchase of a Revised Mystery Box; the chances of success are 14.2%. The Tire Fire makes numerous appearances in The Simpsons, including a Christmas themed episode involving the Funzos.

The Tire Fire (Springfield Tire Yard) is a premium, one purchase, decorative item. It has a constantly burning animation when placed. The player can purchase it for 40 donuts, and it will provide a payout increase of 2%. The Tire Fire can also be attained through the purchase of a Revised Mystery Box; the chances of success are 14.2%. The Tire Fire makes numerous appearances in The Simpsons, including a Christmas themed episode involving the Funzos. Tire fires, where tires are stored, dumped, or processed, exist in two forms: 1. * as fast-burning events, leading to almost immediate loss of control, and 2. * as slow-burning pyrolysis which can continue for over a decade. They are noted for being difficult to extinguish. Such fires produce much smoke, which often carries toxic chemicals from the breakdown of rubber compounds while burning. Tire fires are normally the result of arson or improper manipulation with open fire. Tires are not prone to self-ignition as a tire must be heated to at least 400 °C for a period of several minutes prior to ignition. Extinguishing tire fires is difficult. The fire releases a dark, thick smoke that contains carbon monoxide, SO2 , and products of butadiene and styrene. Burning tires are heated and as they have a low thermal conductivity, they are difficult to cool down. Moreover, they frequently burn inside even if they are extinguished from outside, and easily reignite when hot. One possible remedy is to cover the fire with soil, reducing the supply of O and the exhaust of smoke. After extinguishing and cooling down (which may last several days), toxic chemicals can be neutralized.
