Every year, America throws away hundreds of millions of tires.
They disappear from our cars… but not from the world.
Some are shredded into rubber for roads.
Some are burned as fuel in massive industrial kilns.
Some are upcycled into playgrounds, sports fields, and products we use every day.
And some just pile up, waiting to catch fire or slowly break down.
In this documentary, we follow the hidden afterlife of old tires in the U.S. – from the moment they’re taken off the car, through shredding lines, separation systems, and recycling plants, to the roads and infrastructure they quietly help build.
