Each year, approximately 300 million tires are scrapped in the U.S. alone. This significant number reflects the growing issue of tire waste, which poses environmental challenges due to the materials used in tire manufacturing. Many of these discarded tires can be recycled or repurposed, but a substantial portion still ends up in landfills or illegal dumping sites. Efforts are underway to improve recycling methods and reduce tire waste overall.

Why rubber tires are preferred to steel?

Rubber tires are preferred to steel tires because if we had steel tires driving over the smallest pebble would be a very bumpy ride. Rubber tires are flexible and will be smooth when going over rocks. Not to mention, if we had steel tires the government would have to replace the roads everyday with the amount of people tearing them up with steel tires. Also, rubber tires wear out and that means you will have to buy new ones again..
