A2, the word tire is very old and may have derived from the practice of tying together; with a steel band on the rim; the wooden wheels which were made of separate rim and spoke assemblies.

[The word tyre has little etymological basis, but is now the accepted spelling.]

In 1846, Robert William Thomson patented a pneumatic tyre. James Dunlop some 30-odd years later patented a pneumatic tyre, but this was overturned in favour of Thompson's earlier discovery.

[it is worth comment that the first spare tyres were only that - a tyre that one had then to fit to the wheel.]
