Esse termo também aparece no procedimento em caso de incêndio em aviões. Leia o trecho a seguir, retirado de http://www.boeing.com/assocproducts/aircompat/arff3.pdf:

"WHEEL FIRE
WHEELS ARE EQUIPPED WITH FUSIBLE PLUGS DESIGNED TO MELT AND DEFLATE THE TIRE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS EXCESSIVE. USE OF BCF (HALON) IS PREFERRED IF TIRES ARE PRESSURIZED, BUT DRY CHEMICAL, FOG OR FOAM ARE ACCEPTABLE. IF ALL TIRES ARE DEFLATED ANY FIRE EXTINGUISHING AGENT MAY BE USED. WARNING: APPROACH LANDING GEAR TRUCK FROM FORWARD OR AFT WHEN FIGHTING A WHEEL FIRE AS WHEELS AND TIRES MAY EXPLODE."

No seu caso, seria melhor que você nos fornecesse mais contexto para sabermos se realmente se trata de algo relacionado à ocorrência de incêndios em um
