Do car tires have inner tubes inside of them?
Older cars had them (50's and back). The tubeless tire came around somewhere in the 60's. Very few have them today. You can put a tube in any tire, though. People do that if the tire or rim won't hold air. This means there is damage and tire and/or rim should be replaced. Big trucks even had tubeless tires now although more of them still use tubes today.
What is the meaning of tire size 7.50-15?
Sounds like an old tire size from before the current numbering system. 7.5 inch wide tread on a 15 inch rim.
Could under inflated tires cause heat that could lead to tire blowouts?
Yes, under-inflated tires are dangerous. They can also leave the rim under heavy cornering.
Do you have to mount and balance a replacement tire?
You have to mount ANY tire . It won't do you much good unless it's on a wheel (rim) -that's what mounting is. Balancing is essential on front tires to avoid high speed wobble and bounce. -On rear tires not really necessary, but preferable.
Are punture proof tires real?
Not exactly. There is never flat running tires that are used by us in law enforcement for special response teams. Inside the tires there is a metal ring that is bigger then the size of a rim. Therefore, when tire is shot at or is shredded the vehicle can keep going without rolling on tire and rim so it will not do any damage to rim or tire but if tire got a hole in it then its already done deal the main reason for it is so you can drive that extra 5 miles on that metal ring around the rim to get to safe place without risking you ability of driving and loosing control.There are also solid, non-pneumatic tires and/or 'inner tubes' available for some applications, most commonly for wheelbarrows, bicycles, and industrial equipment (military equipment too, I think). They aren't so much 'puncture-proof' technically, it's simply a matter of the fact that a punture is inconsequential, since there is no possibility of the tire deflating. If they are available at all for common automobiles, they certainly aren't mainstream, and would likely be expensive and not very smooth riding.Another puncture resistant type are pneumatic (air/gas inflated) tires that also contain a thick, gel or resin that, when the tire is punctured, seals the hole automatically with little or no deflation occurring. Incidentally, there are gels and resins that can be purchased at your favourite tire shop, auto parts shop, even Walmart, etc. that you yourself can inject into your tires to provide your tires with puncture resistance. The 'green goo' type is popular and seems to work well (check with your tire dealer using first if you have a warranty on the tires though, just in case it could void the warranty).

Rim size is important since you can't put a sixteen inch tire on an eighteen inch rim. But tire width is important too. Don't try to put wide tires on narrow rims. If you have questions, your local tire professional would be a good resource. Perhaps he/she would be impressed that you're a "chick".
