   Lol what a bodge you 100% will get some on the tire, but honestly if you do it in aerosol cans you can get some standard thinners from paint shop and wipe it off your tires

    i got spray paint on my tyre mate. it just came off using a wire brush. as long as its only spray thats settled from the air and not whats being directly sprayed onto it you'll be sound. (if you no what i mean)
