Yes, tires may have RFID chips

RFID chips are actually placed in some tires. But not so that government can track you, as is suggested on the internet. Major tire producers are investigating new technologies to support their internal production processes and to gather more data per process step for individual tires.

Goodyear began exploring RFID technology as far back as 1984 and was putting it in tires around 1993. Michelin, meanwhile, is adding RFID chips into their tires for easier tracking and inventory purposes and are working to develop sensors that can provide a wealth of data on the tires as they are out on the road.
