Default Recycling tyres

While replacing 3 complete sets of worn out tyres I suddenly wondered if we can recycle our tyres...

How about cutting one in half then pulling it around the bottom of your favourite mug to make a non-slip base?

How about schumacher giving back something to us paying racers?

Surely they could do some sort of deal on new tyres when trading in old ones. Say £1 a full set?

Just a little idea to help the environment etc..
