SIDEWALL PROTECTOR RIBS

摘要

A pneumatic tire for use with telescopic material handlers includes a first concentrically continuous sidewall protector rib projecting axially outward from the sidewall and located above a midpoint of the sidewall. A second non-continuous sidewall protector rib is located concentrically outward of the first sidewall protector rib. The tire is a relatively low aspect ratio tire having a relatively flat sidewall profile. This provides a tire having the advantage of added sidewall protection without increasing the overall width of the inflated tire.
