NOT necasarily. If there is any way for water to penatrate the wheel/tire it will. If the tire is sealed and the rim has any holes in it for ventalation purposes water may get into the wheel and create an unbalanced situation with centrifical force. Anyone who plays with water toys knows that water will find its way into just about any weak spot and has the ability to reak havoc. You coud practically turn your vehicle into a boat type of vehicle and skim accross any body of water easily, but beating a speed boat may be a bit much to ask. Your only hope would be for him to lose control even for just a second, and then you may win the event.
