I dunno, I like the web based approach. For inexpensive tires, it might not make sense to ship them all over the country/world, but for expensive tires it might make sense. Especially if there is an easy web app for keeping track of where the tires are at any given moment.
I would also propose a model in which we each pay a $5 or $10 rental fee to fund the purchase of new tires for the library. Of course some selfless soul would need to become the tire librarian. That could get old fast.
