Do you mean tires like this? Why shouldn't it wear the same way like a common tire with air?
Agreed with sucessfuls evaluation. Once the outer layer gets eroded, same as every tyre, what's left can't be good for any grip.
Ask Michelin, it was in one of the videos. Maybe the composite they're using is more resilient.

The only benefit regarding wear is that an airless tire obviously cannot be operated with impropper air pressure and thus, the assumed 8 % tires that are replaced due to uneven wear caused by wrong pressure could be saved.
