Tires, or tyres (in American and British English, respectively), are ring-shaped parts, either pneumatic or solid (including rubber, metals and plastic composites), that fit around wheels to protect them and enhance their function.

Pneumatic tires are used on many types of vehicles, such as bicycles, motorcycles, cars, trucks, earthmovers, and aircraft. Tires enable better vehicle performance by providing traction and load support. Tires form a flexible cushion between the vehicle and the road, which smooths out shock and makes for a more comfortable ride while keeping the wheel in more constant contact with the road.
