Best Answer

There are several ways to dispose of used tires properly:

  • Leave used tires with a reputable tire dealer-a fee is usually charged for this service.
  • Bring used tires to a local tire collection event for disposal.
  • Call your county or local solid waste transfer station/landfill and ask if they accept used tires.
  • Contact your county or local recycling center and ask if they accept used tires.

Use tires are then recycled in several ways:

  • incineration for energy recovery
  • retreading
  • ground rubber is used in products and in rubberized asphalt [The use of ground rubber from scrap tires in highways is the largest single use of recycled rubber.]
  • put in a landfill

I believe they go back to the manufacture for recycling, the longevity of tires depends on: track conditions and surface, how the car is set up, and how soft or hard the tire is, (a soft tire will wear-out much quicker than a hard tire).
