You could also use a large tomato cage instead of tires and the excess

Perhaps punch several holes in the (bottom-facing) sidewall of
the tyres?

Tried it. With the tires piled on each other, it was near impossible to
ensure all the water was out. I used a 1/2 inch spatula type drill bit
to punch large holes in the sides and treads. No go and it wasn't easy
work.

In the end, I would have been better off getting out the circular saw,
cutting a piece of 2x8 untreated lumber into 2 foot sections and nailing
them together...then piling them up 16, 24 or 32 inches high. It would
have taken ten minutes and cost less than $20 for the wood - and the
assembly would have been reuseable.

I plan to try that technique next year.

I wonder how well using plastic lattice would work?
Wood lattice would rot.
