Car tires are not made from rubber trees any more. Tires and other "rubber" products are produced from synthetic rubber, made from petroleum based polymers.
Pre-World War II tires were produce using the sap of rubber trees and through a process called vulcanization (created by Charles Goodyear). The vulcanization process entails heating the sap and adding sulfur, peroxide, or bisphenol to improve elasticity.
Modern passenger car tires are made from as many as 20 different types of natural rubber from rubber tress and synthetic rubber which is used in different parts of the tire.
