A team of researchers at Oregon State University (OSU) have suggested the idea to change the filler that is currently used to make tires. This method could mean less energy to manufacture the tire and also improve the heat resistance and retain its tensile strength and could prove to be more fuel efficient.
There's still lots of research to be done to realize the long-term wear. If you want to read more you can read about it in Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturings.
