In this modern whirled, you'd think they'd have invented a solid tyre

I once had a dream of a liquid that stays liquid _in_ the tyre but
solidifies if it touches air, at, say, a puncture or rim deformation.
Not entirely unlike those tubes of silicon caulking.

Like this stuff, maybe:-

It comes in sizes for cars & lorries, too.


Just like that - maybe. Does that fill the tyre, or just coat the
inside?
Still, looks useful.
Why doesn't everybody use it?
