Torque is a force. You cannot apply torque to a wheel unless there is a resisting force (traction due the the wheel touching the ground). This physics rule applies here: for every action (force/torque) there is an equal and opposite reaction. If a tire is in the air, there is zero torque going to it even if it is spinning madly.

Another way to look at it is from a "work" prospective. Work is done if energy is transferred from one thing to another -- in a car case, energy from the engine is used to move the car.
