Abstract
A heavy truck tire is provided that includes a tread and a casing. The casing has a bead with a bead core having padding gum and a rod with a perimeter. A contention armature surrounds the bead core and has an overlap, a majority of which is located outward in the radial direction from the rod. The padding gum is arranged in relation to the rod such that an outer area, inner area, and an axially outer area of the padding gum have areas that are greater than or equal to 20% of the area of the perimeter of the rod. An axially inner area of the padding gum is greater than or equal to 10% of the area of the perimeter of the rod.
