    John Dunlop invented the air-filled or pneumatic tire in 1888 -- however, his tires were for bicycles.

    In 1895, André Michelin was the first person to use pneumatic tires on an automobile, albeit not successfully.

    In 1911, Philip Strauss invented the first successful tire, which was a combination tire and air filled inner tube. Strauss' company the Hardman Tire & Rubber Company marketed the tires.

    In 1908, Frank Seiberling invented grooved tires with improved road traction.
