PURPOSE: To provide an aircraft tire which is reduced in whole weight, and improved in durability of a side wall. CONSTITUTION: A tire has at least two circumferentially extending reinforcement inserts 90. At least one pair of reinforcement inserts 90 are located on each side of the tire. Each insert 90 preferably has two cord reinforced members 91, 92 having bias angled cords. The cords are equal but opposite in orientation relative to the cords of the adjacent member. The pairs of the reinforced members 91, 92 extend from bead portions 18, 20 and terminate in a radially upper portion of the side walls 14A, 16A. Each pair of members 91, 92 are interposed between a pair of carcass plies on the ply side of the tire 10. This structure can increase tire durability while at the same time achieve a significant weight reduction. |
