Filling tires with water is an off-road trick to add weight for traction, at the point it will do the most good. Farmers will put water in tractor tires for the same reason.

When a compressor draws in air, the air is compressed about 12 times normal atmospheric pressure. Moisture that is present as a vapor in air begins to condense. More condensation occurs as the compressed air moves through the system and cools. The effect is more pronounced in summer because of higher humidity.
