Shooting Tires for spalling protection.

Anyone else try this out? Using an old car tire as a spalling catcher for your steel gongs. Saves the wood of your home-made target boxes thats for sure, I don't think I had any go through even after smacking the gong a couple of times with the .308

Does this hurt the tire?

The tire doesn't feel a thing. It's being rebalanced.
