why cant car tires just be fully rubber so they don’t become flat?
The advantage of the air, I think, is that you feel the bumps a lot less. Of course, you could also fill them with helium, which would make the car lighter, and save you .00001% in gas.

Ask and you shall receive. Michelin just opened a plant to make airless tires. http://www.gizmag.com/michelin-tweel/34909/
Technically it’s not airless. The spaces you see in the pic are filled with air.

Pneumatic tires suck. Thanks to the cold weather I have a tire pressure warning on my car. I would love any alternative that matches or exceeds performance. Would love to never have to worry about a flat or under-inflated tires.
