Tires made of rubber insulate passengers from rough road surface, are relative light weight, maintain their shape when inflated, most punctures are easily reparable, can be made with tread patterns to allow control by the driver in inclement weather conditions and increase braking power.

Answer:
Prior to rubber tires, metal and wood were the materials in use. However it was found that natural Rubber provides better cushioning, makes less noise. Further rubber deforms under weight /force which results in larger contact patch with the road than with metal/wood tires of same diameter/width. During cornering at high speeds, the deformation of sidewall and larger contact area improves the traction or grip on the road increasing safety.
