Here is a video explaining the usage of Tgi3D cross section editing tool. In your case you should texture the cylinder before you edit it into the tire shape.

I have downloaded the training version, installed but I have just only this toolbar available and there is no cross section tool available! What I'm doing wrong??

Hi,
Opps the video showed old icons.
The 4th tool from the left is the cross section tool. In SU most tools provide a hint if you hover the cursor over the icon a few seconds.
