Maybe tires of experiments (5)
I believe the answer is:
tries
'experiments' is the definition.
(try can mean an attempt or experiment)
'maybe tires' is the wordplay.
'maybe' is an anagram indicator.
'tires' anagrammed gives 'TRIES'.
'of' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for tries that I've seen before include "Scoring moves in rugby" , "Attempts" .)
