I am contemplating planting in tires, has anyone else done that?

This DIY potato bin works well - I used the idea last year. http://tipnut.com/grow-potatoes/

I use the tubs out of wash machines, they work great

I have heard it works good- but I can't bring myself to do it. Just being in a car with tires makes me sick- I wonder what all that outgassing fumes would do to the soil?

I would love to try but I wouldn't be able to lift the tires up as the plant grew and put new soil in each time.
