Here's a Lightwave tire I been working on

Still has a bit of work to complete but hey, I wanted to get something in here early on, hehe

The mesh is nice but the texture could use some work. Try using the newtek rubber preset and tweak it out to your fitting. Thats what I would do. :)

Hey Memz thanks for the comments. Actually it does have the rubber preset on it, but I auto sized it and didn't do any more tweaks after that. But yeah I'll work on those issues next.

Very nice.

The mesh looks great, but like Memz said, the textures need work. It looks a little bit to plasticy, perhaps a diffuse and spec maps might do the trick.

I think a lot of it has to do with the lighting.
A good three-point set up would go a long way in this scene.
Keep at it!
