It might, slightly, but the mesh is only visual and it won't make a difference to how the physics perform.

I just can never get a tire to only deflate, rather than have either it turn into a ring, or get it shredded completely.

I had to find a work around to avoid this happening when I made my map. If you make two boxes and put them perfectly side by side, drove over the join and yanked the brakes on you will get hooked. This is the same thing that's happening to you, but the square edge in your case is slightly raised.
As this is how my entire map is made I needed a solution. It is indeed the fact the the vertical surface is acting like a brick wall. I added a small 45 degree bevel at the edge of each joining object and you can yank the brakes on until the cows come home.

Yes it puts an ugly rut across your nice seamless road/object but I guess its better than having your wheels rudely wrenched from beneath you when you least expect it.

Its almost like it puts an extra extended edge to the vertical face when ever your wheel is skidding over it. View attachment 22438 (slightly exaggerated pic to show you what I mean)

I don't know how far off vertical the face has to be to avoid this, but for my application the 45 degree bevel did the trick. It would be interesting to see if it would happen on a 89 degree vertical face.

Oh, try to turn the road sections into planes instead of cubes, the way the physics work is kind of weird*. this would help fix the wheel ripping, and remove the need for bevels.

have you ever placed your vehicle below the terrain? the faces of an object use that kind of force, but in a much smaller distance. by removing the sideways forces, you remove the wheel ripping.
