I don't have the nerve to try it.

I wouldn't if I were you. I came into a grass strip with a bit of a float and
wound up with the trees at the end approaching a bit too fast. Braking action is
worse on grass than pavement. About 40' from the trees, I kicked right rudder
and locked the right brake. She spun around nicely; the wing dipped about
halfway to the ground, but nothing touched and everything was fine.

When I changed the tires a few years later, there was still grass trapped
between the left tire bead and the rim. I think that spinning it around at
enough speed to result in backwards motion would result in a flat.
