This is property damage, you'll get a misdemeanor if they want to charge you. Owning a tire valve core tool, removing the cores, and placing them on the tire is only criminal mischief. Don't forget to put the valve stem cap back on for more fun!

Just back 'em out slightly. It'll take them ages to figure it out.

Would a Molotov cocktail through the window also work?

For getting the air out of the tire? Sure, probably. Eventually...

criminal mischief

Sounds like something a rascally little ragamuffin would do in a 1950s comic book 😄

And, amazingly enough, is the exact term that many penal codes use for property damage. Just as two examples, here's Montana's, and here's Texas'. Little OPer wanted to sound smart and repeat words they don't understand.
