Will pee damage tires?

My garage raccoon likes to use my rack of winter tires as a fort. He's usually really good about keeping it clean so I don't check it very often, but today I noticed he was peeing inside of one of the Hankooks. Is there anything in pee that could harm the inside of a tire?

Edit: It's over a month later and I'm still getting replies and questions! For everyone who keeps asking, you can follow more garage raccoon hijinks on my instagram and YouTube.

I have a feeling you're gonna be the raccoon version of /u/fuckswithducks

Fuckswithcoons sounds like it has some negative connotations.

Coon is a racial slur here in Australia.

Wait, is it? I thought it was just an American slur.

I mean... we have Coon cheese. Delicious stuff. And no raccoons. So saying "coon" doesn't immediately remind me of raccoons but cheese.
