I hear how terrible synthetic-ruber tires (read: all modern tires) are for the environment, and I’ve wondered why we can’t do this? If we made the cars lighter and used very good shocks? Or bikes even - they are all rubber too.

Those tyres have basically no grip relative to rubber tyres, they would be a nightmare to drive.

And the turning radius is atrocious. Most crossroads would become complicated multipoint maneuvers. The speedometer would be wrong too but going above half the speed limit is a death wish anyway.

You spelled “tires” wrong.
And before you say it’s a regional difference, American native English speakers outnumber the next 3 countries combined, and none of them are England (which is 5th). Which means that the way we do it is the correct one.
