This sort of thing can get ugly. A year or so back we had a fatality in Iowa. I don't recall hearing what they were shooting with, but they bounced one off an old bathtub. I don't recall if it was the shooter or his buddy who was done in.

Tires are notorious for bounce backs. The rubber has just the right give to prevent penetration and they can bounce back surprisingly heavy duty stuff.
