It acually takes a really long time.. but a lot longer in a landfill.. people should just RECYCLE!!!!

Yes, tires can decompose over a very long period of time, typically decades to centuries. However, the process is slow because tires are made of synthetic rubber, which is resistant to natural decomposition processes. Improperly disposed tires can have negative environmental impacts.
Rubber tires take a long time to decompose because they are made of synthetic rubber, which is a durable material that is resistant to natural decomposition processes. Additionally, rubber tires are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions such as heat and moisture, making them even slower to break down.
Tires can take hundreds to thousands of years to decompose in landfills due to their durable materials and lack of biodegradability. While the rubber may break down over time, the process is extremely slow, and tires can persist in the environment for generations. Recycling and repurposing tires can significantly reduce their environmental impact.
Given enough time yes, they will decompose. It would take thousands of years for this to happen.
iron does not decompose but after a long time and i mean a long time it just starts to flake away but does not decompose
Does not decompose
1700 years to decompose
it takes over a year for it to decompose
it takes about 10 years to decompose .
Tires can take hundreds to thousands of years to decompose in a landfill due to their synthetic rubber composition which breaks down very slowly. They pose environmental risks as they can leach toxic chemicals as they degrade. Recycling and reuse are preferred to reduce their impact on the environment.
