Old tires, any good use or pitch?

(1/4) > >>

jalentour:
I have about 30-40 old tires on my property.  I spent the winter gathering them and the flooding gave me a few more. 
Is there any good use for old tires or is it better to take them to the recycling center.  I can get rid of them for $2 a piece. 
I was thinking they'd be a good back stop on the shooting range or deposited on hillside areas with lot of erosion problems.  Or just getting them out of here....
Any good ideas?

herbhome:
I have seen old timers stack and fill them for retaining walls. On the other hand they are indicated in pollution.

Lovely idea Iddee, thank you.

Acebird:
Recycling would work much better if they gave you 2 bucks a piece but it is a political money grab that discourages recycling.
