Abstract
A tire for off-the-road vehicles, the tire is designed for a removable tread, or a lugged metal traction band. A pair of detachable resilient shields are maintained adjacent the sidewalls of the tire to protect this critical area of the tire from damage. The radially outer edges of the shields are secured adjacent the tread and the radially inner edges have circumferentially continuous inextensible reinforcements for interlocking engagement of the inner edges with the flanges of the wheel rim.
