A radial ply pneumatic tire 100, having an unvulcanized carcass 10 as an intermediate article of manufacture, is described. The carcass 10 has a ply 20 and at least two components. The components are selected from one or more of the component types consisting of a sidewall 70, an apex 30, a chafer 60, a liner 50, a whitewall strip 80, a cover strip 90, and a gum shoulder strip 40. The ply has a width (Wp) and a pair of ends 12,14, the distance between the ends 12,14 defining the ply length (L). The ply 20 and the components are laminated to one another and have common ends 12,14 that are radially spliced along a substantially flat plane (P). The flat plane (P) extends through the article across its axial width substantially parallel to the cords 22 of the ply 20. The flat plane (P) is inclined at an angle 0, 0 being less than 90.degree., preferably about 80.degree. relative to a radial normal plane (NP) passing through the ply 20 and extending parallel to the cords 22 and perpendicular to the ply 20.
