Hi Carl,

is it possible to use a deformer with crafter director to simulate a really heavy vehicle showing that the tires are under stress from alot of weight and still rotate correctly?

I believe Luigi has implemented Tire Pressure in the latest version of Craft 4-Wheeler Extended which is available as a BETA version on our forum.
Otherwise I believe you can do it using an FFD space warp/modifier in 3ds Max.

I'll try to create a demonstration video of the tire pressure feature later.
