There are a number of reasons. It used to be that when you purchased new tires the dealer would take your old tires and get rid of them for you. But now you have to pay a disposal fee for each tire. So some unscrupulous people keep them rather than paying the fee and they dump them all over.
Or this being the shore of Lake Erie, some boaters use tires on pylons or docks as a bumper to keep their boats from being damaged when they bump up against them. Sometimes these tires get knocked off and they end up on the shoreline somewhere.

Thanks Barb, Joan and Skip. It does seem that I see discarded tires in lots of places... Just more trash, which is a pet peeve of mine.
