From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Tires
     "To tire" the head is to adorn it (2 Kings 9:30). As a noun the
     word is derived from "tiara," and is the rendering of the Heb.
     p'er, a "turban" or an ornament for the head (Ezek. 24:17; R.V.,
     "headtire;" 24:23). In Isa. 3:18 the word _saharonim_ is
     rendered "round tires like the moon," and in Judg. 8:21, 26


     "ornaments," but in both cases "crescents" in the Revised
     Version.
