In this particular case what I would consider, because I know it will harm my neighbor
You're speaking to your own behavior here, I think.
if I really have to do it on my property...
I'm curious about proposed solutions if the neighbor is burning the tires on their property, but the fumes or pollutants are impacting the environment on your property (e.g. through the blowing of wind, or the flowing of water)
This question gets at free-rider problem and a conversation about externalities... so pardon if it seems trite, I'm generally interested in Darth's take.
if the neighbor is burning the tires and he's in a direct violation of the HOA contract, then he will pay. It's all about the contract and what each agreed prior to the facts.
impacting the environment
And who is this "environment"? Is it a living man? Or an entity ?

For the purpose of my question, its the water and air which transits the boundaries of the land parcels which were defined by the contract of sale for Your Land, or Your Neighbor's Land.
reply
OK so water and air can sue me or make me pay ?
reply
No, but the air encountering your property is now full of tire smoke
reply
ok so? If these aspects are stipulated in the contract, the one that created the smoke will pay. The thing is how you gonna quantify the damages?
The problem will get complicated when there's no contract agreement. But then comes in place the consensus of the other neighbors to bust the balls of the one doing bad things to the air.
The important thing that OP wants to point out with this post is that we do not need a government or authority by the state to rule some basic things in our life.
I strongly recommend to watch the 3 parts of a excellent video "The island" by Larken Rose, here is part 1
