Abstract
A pneumatic safety tire having a ground-engaging tread portion, a pair of sidewall portions, a pair of bead portions, a carcass structure which extends from bead portion to bead portion, a tread-reinforcing belt structure placed circumferentially about the carcass structure and beneath the tread portion. Each sidewall is provided with reinforcing means which extend circumferentially and uninterruptedly along the internal surface of the tire from a point radially below the maximum section width of the tire to a point beneath the tread portion before reaching the mid-circumferential plane of the tire. The surface of the reinforcing means facing the tire cavity have generally a corrugated cross-sectional configuration as viewed in a plane perpendicular to the tire surface and radial plane of the tire. The corrugations lie in a plane substantially perpendicular to the mid-circumferential plane of the tire.
