I don't know to be honest... I mean there's a lot of these types of videos out there where guys seem to balance the car on an angle and pop tires off. It really shouldn't work to be honest because the open differential nature of the rear axle would force the least loaded tire to spin as well as cause the ABS/VSC system to freak out when it realizes the driver's side wheels are not spinning.
But... I have seen some crazy crap from out of the US... so to answer your question... *shrugs shoulders* I dunno.
