They have airless-tires in development for cars, but they are pretty odd looking.

I would have concerns about how they would fair on hard cornering.

Yeah. That wont play well in the snow. Getting a few pounds of slushy ice mix lodged in there will throw the wheels so far out of balance it will make driving feel more like trying to ride a bull.

Tires are part of the suspension system (small part) it will be interested to see how Car manufacturers compensate for no air tires if they go that route.
