Hi, maybe this (http://www.x3dx.com/readarticle.php?article_id=5&rowstart=6)tip helps you. It's part of my making of alienbike (http://www.x3dx.com/readarticle.php?article_id=5&rowstart=0) so, it doesn't show you how to model tire click by click, but show one way from many to create tire with backward editable pattern.

There on cgtalk is somewhere also click by click videotutorial to create tire in xsi with a little bit different method, so search ;)
