Wouldn't the tires leech chemicals/compounds in the soil?

If you think your a hammer everything looks like a nail.
Tires 50yrs ago weren't steel belted. They weren't even polyglas back then. WHOLE LOTTA difference now.
I personally would not grow food plants of any kind, or any culinary herbs in a tire planter. We don't use rr ties, salt treated, concrete block, nothing but untreated pine or other untreated wood.
Got a .22 .30 .32 .357 .38 .40 .41 .44 .45 .480 or .500 S&W cylinder that needs throats honed? 9mm, 10mm/40S&W, 45 ACP pistol barrel that won't "plunk" your handloads? 480 Ruger or 475 Linebaugh cylinder that needs the "step" reamed to 6° 30min chamfer?

They are common in Mexico. Call them guaraches. (War-achcess).
I grew up in Southern California not too far from Malibu Beach back in the 1950s and 1960s, and all the surfers down at Malibu and the other popular surfing beaches wore guarache sandals. They called them "Tijuana retreads" because they were manufactured in little family-owned shops just across the border in Tijuana, Mexico.

There is no such thing as too many tools, especially when it comes to casting and reloading.

Safe casting and shooting!

I like those sandals, even wore out a pair. Well the top anyhow, as the rubber last a lifetime.
In the Philippines I see inside out tires all the time but they have some way of putting a bottom in them so they can be used for water storage and as laundry wash tubs, etc
