The tires are fairly easy.  I used  the 1/4" dowel to line up and attach the four parts to create the tire. Be sure to overlap/alternate each part so that the end result looks like tread (see photo).

1.)  Place the dowel through the center of tire-4. 

2.)  Place the dowel through the center of tire-3 and place tire-3 over tire-4.  Alternate the groves to begin creating the tread.  Glue tire-3 to tire-4.

3.)  Place the dowel through the center of tire-2 and over tire-3.  Glue them together, again alternating the groves to continue with the tread process.

4.)  Finally, place the dowel through the center of tire-1, place over tire-2, and glue them together.

Repeat steps to create four tires.
