A retaining wall system (10) is defined which includes a plurality of
tires
arranged in a plurality of courses (14). The tires can be offset within
the wall and can be cut in various ways to advantageously improve the strength
of the wall. In addition, reinforcing (25, 30, 32) formed from tires or
conveyor belts can be associated with the wall system to improve the structural
stability of the wall.
