The inner surface of the removable tread belt and the outer surface of the tire carcass have an interengaging pattern to interlock the two.

The bars and the inextensible belt are encapsulated in a matrix of rubber. The ends of the bars extend outwardly to a point beyond the widest portion of the tire carcass sidewall. The tread belt has a tread pattern on its outer circumferential surface.
