In 1839 an American, Charles Goodyear, discovered a method to mqke rubber stronger, more elastic, and less sticky. In 1845 the first air-filled rubber tire was patented by Scottish inventor Robert W. Thomson, but it was not until 1888, when British inventor John Boyd Dunlop patented his tire design, that the rubber tire industry really started.
