Tennessee tire tax money goes to highways
Beginning July 1, 2025, Tennessee sends sales and use tax revenue from new and used tires to its Highway Fund. This covers revenue from tire sales, use, consumption, or distribution. The amount is capped at $80 million for fiscal year 2025-2026; extra revenue follows the usual allocation rules. Revenue from the 1992 education-related tax increase and the 2002 increase from 6% to 7% keeps its existing allocations. This law changes where tax money goes, not household tax rates.
