Tyre is so smooth but steel is noy smooth and it can never smooth another reason steel may diffuse rapidly as compare to tyre

Radial tyres may also have compoments of steel.

Michelin, in 1946, made a revolution with their inovative series of «X» type tyres, which included a kind of «steel network» inside the rubber.

This tyre was developed for the front-wheel-drive for the Citroen Traction limousines. Otherwise, the tradicional diagonal tyres would not survivelond in front-wheel drive cars.
