Abstract
A vehicle wheel and tire assembly. In the event of an emergency operation, the pneumatic tire contacts a support member of the rim. A stabilizing arrangement protects the wheel and tire assembly from moving in an uncontrolled manner. This stabilizing arrangement is in the form of a corrugation, which is provided both on the inner surface of the tire and on the support member of the rim. This corrugation, which can be a fine groove system, reliably assures that the tire and the rim are provided with steering stability, especially when driving in curves.
