Tire sales taxes fund highways in 2025

Beginning July 1, 2025, Tennessee sends sales and use taxes from new or used tire transactions to the state highway fund. For the 2025-2026 fiscal year, no more than $80 million can go to the highway fund under this rule; any extra follows the old allocation rules. Money from two past sales tax rate increases does not move. The 1992 education-directed increase and the 2002 raise from 6% to 7% keep going to their original programs, including education.
