Tires are separate models from the vehicle model. In the vehicle hierarchy tires mount to hub0, hub1, hub2 and hub3. The tire model has this for nodes;

bounds
box01
collision-1
detail1
start01
tire1

This is a basic setup. More detail markers could be added for more LOD. As long as you follow this setup your custom mesh should mount properly to the vehicle. Scale is also a factor, its pretty easy to foul up so you're best bet is to build off the wheel example provided in the SDK under starter.racing.
