PNEUMATIC TYRE OF PARTICULAR SHAPE AND SIDEWALL THICKNESS

摘要

The elliptically-shaped tire has a pair of oppositely-opposed bead cores, a carcass structure each end of which is wrapped around a bead core, an apex disposed between the carcass structure and each of the ends thereof, a pair of oppositely-opposed sidewalls overlying the carcass structure, a chafer strip positioned between the carcass structure and each of the sidewalls, and a tread overlying the carcass structure and a belt reinforcing structure positioned therebetween. The carcass structure has a carcass aspect ratio of about 60. Additionally, the tire has a pair of oppositely-opposed sidewall portions having a relatively thin radially outer portion and a relatively thick radially inner portion.
