Radiation and micrometeorites would likely rip the car to shreds before too long, but the solid tires would definitely last long enough for the publicity stunt to make the news. C,mon guys, ambient air pressure is ~15psi. So a normal Tesla tire in space is an effective pressure of about 60psi, or 33% over recommended. That's not even gonna leak, let alone explode. But if you want to, you could reduce the tire pressure in the car to 30psi before launch (still drivable!) and that would be an effective recommended 45psi in space.
