The tires are for shrapnel protection, they will prevent it flying as far and hopefully protect from shrapnel hitting them.
It’s not super effective but it’s kinda effective
Like the cope cages on their ground vehicles.
Probably even more so because the intent I believe it to deflect shrapnel from another explosion instead of stop a direct hit
