Abstract
The invention relates to a tire comprising a crown reinforcement formed of at least two working crown layers each formed of reinforcing elements inserted between skim layers of rubber compound, a first layer S of polymer compound being in contact with at least one working crown layer and in contact with the carcass reinforcement and the crown reinforcement comprising at least one layer of circumferential reinforcing elements. In accordance with the invention, the elastic modulus under tension at 10% elongation of at least one skim layer of at least one working crown layer is less than 8.5 MPa, the maximum value of tan(δ), denoted tan(δ)max of the said at least one skim layer of at least one working crown layer is less than 0.100, and the complex dynamic shear modulus G*, measured at 10% and 60° C. on the return cycle, of the said first layer S of polymer compound is greater than 1.35 MPa.
