Default Shock oil on foam tires

So being the idiot that I am, I knocked over the shock that I was waiting for air bubbles to escape and poured oil all over my foam tires. I tried using motor spray to wipe as much as it off but the tire still feel very oily. Any idea how I can get all the oil out?

Wash the tires with dawn dish soap.

hold your car on its side in the garbage, pin the throttle, THEN clean them with whatever.
